Description

Matrilysin is a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-7) enzyme that plays a critical role in the degradation of extracellular matrix components. This compound is essential for research in tissue remodeling, cancer metastasis, and inflammatory diseases. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D teams, academic researchers, and diagnostic manufacturers focused on developing novel therapeutic and diagnostic agents.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a key reagent in enzymatic assays to study substrate specificity and inhibition kinetics of MMP-7.
• Drug Discovery & Development: Serves as a target protein for high-throughput screening (HTS) to identify potential inhibitors for cancer and anti-inflammatory therapies.
• Proteomics & Biomarker Studies: Employed in the analysis of protein cleavage patterns and the identification of novel biological substrates in disease models.
• Diagnostic Kit Manufacturing: Integrated into enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and other diagnostic kits for the detection and quantification of MMP-7 activity in clinical samples.
• Tissue Engineering: Applied in in vitro studies to understand and control extracellular matrix remodeling for regenerative medicine applications.
