Description

Matlystatin A is a potent and selective inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a class of enzymes involved in tissue remodeling and degradation. This compound is of significant interest for research into the mechanisms of cancer metastasis, angiogenesis, and inflammatory diseases. It serves as a critical biochemical tool for pharmaceutical R&D, particularly in the development of novel therapeutic agents targeting extracellular matrix biology. Researchers in oncology, dermatology, and rheumatology utilize this high-purity reference standard to validate assays and explore new treatment pathways.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a reference standard and potent inhibitor in studies of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) enzyme kinetics and function.
• Oncology Research: Investigated for its potential to inhibit tumor invasion and metastasis by blocking MMP-mediated degradation of the extracellular matrix.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Serves as a lead compound or pharmacological tool in the discovery and validation of new anti-cancer and anti-arthritic drugs.
• Inflammatory Disease Models: Applied in research on conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis where MMP activity is pathologically elevated.
• Angiogenesis Studies: Utilized to study the role of specific MMPs in the formation of new blood vessels, relevant to cancer and wound healing.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Supplied as a high-purity compound for basic scientific research in cell biology and molecular pharmacology departments.

Quality Control

Every batch of Matlystatin A is manufactured and analyzed under strict quality management protocols to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available upon request, providing full analytical data from techniques including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at -20°C or below in a dry, moisture-free environment. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and light-sensitive. For long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere. Allow the sealed container to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation.
