Nori Bovine MMP-9 ELISA Kit

DataSheet   

This ELISA kit is for quantification of MMP9 in bovine. This is a quick ELISA assay that reduces time to 50% compared to the conventional method, and the entire assay only takes 3 hours. This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique and uses biotin-streptavidin chemistry to improve the performance of the assays. An antibody specific for MMP9 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any MMP9 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After washing away any unbound substances, a detection antibody specific for MMP9 is added to the wells. Following wash to remove any unbound antibody reagent, a detection reagent is added. After intensive wash a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of MMP9 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped, and the intensity of the color is measured.

Alternative names for MMP-9: Matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9), 92 kDa type IV collagenase, 92 kDa gelatinase, gelatinase B (GELB), MMP9

Background:

Matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9), also known as 92 kDa type IV collagenase, 92 kDa gelatinase or gelatinase B (GELB), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MMP9 gene.  Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis, intracerebral hemorrhage (1), and metastasis. Most MMPs are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The enzyme encoded by this gene degrades type IV and V collagens. Studies in rhesus monkeys suggest that the enzyme is involved in IL-8-induced mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells from bone marrow, and murine studies suggest a role in tumor-associated tissue remodeling .

Thrombospondins, intervertebral disc proteins, regulate the effective levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) 2 and 9, which are key effectors of ECM remodeling (2). MMP’s play a role in inflammation associated with aortic aneurysms. Doxycycline suppresses the growth of aortic aneurysms through its inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (3). MMPs such as MMP9 can be involved in the development of several human malignancies, as degradation of collagen IV in basement membrane and extracellular matrix facilitates tumor progression, including invasion, metastasis, growth and angiogenesis (4).
