Matrix Metalloproteinase-3 from Human, Recombinant Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

MCP-1 has been used to induce chemotaxis in mice macrophages.', 'MMP-3 human has been used to develop a simple and sensitive electrogenerated chemiluminescence (electrochemiluminescence (ECL)) peptide-based bioassay for the detection of matrix metalloproteinases releasing from living cells.

Biological Activity

Matrix metallopeptidase 3 (MMP3) has a broad substrate specificity and is capable of degrading fibronectin, laminin, collagens III, IV, IX, and X, and cartilage proteoglycans. It participates in wound repair, progression of atherosclerosis, tissue remodeling and tumor initiation. MMP3 variants can be associated with hypertrophy of interventricular septum or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.', 'The gene JE, also referred to as MCP-1 (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1), encodes a secreted chemokine th at functions as a chemoattractant for monocytes and may activate their anti-tumor properties. This protein may serve as a potential therapeutic anticancer agent.
