Background

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases that degrade substances within the extracellular matrix. The MMP family includes six different groups of enzymes: collagenases, gelatinases, stromelysins, transmembrane MMPs, matrilysins and others. MMPs are secreted as proenzymes that have to be cleaved in order to be activated. Other MMPs, plasmins as well as other factors activate MMPs. MMPs are thought to play an important role in tissue remodeling associated with various physiological and pathological processes. MMP9 degrades of proteins in the extracellular matrix and activates growth factors like proTGF beta and proTNF alpha. MMP9 contributes to the invasion and metastasis of various human malignancies.

FAQs for MMP-9 ELISA Kit (KA0398). (Showing 1 - 2 of 2 FAQs).

1.  I’m looking for a pair of antibodies to MMP-9 that can be used in a sandwich assay. Do you carry any? 
   • We have 10 primary antibodies for MMP-9 that have been tested in ELISA, seen here.It looks like 2 have been tested for capture (please note the tested species for each of these), seen here.6 have been tested for detection, seen here.
2. wondering what the difference is between your quantikine and duo set elisas?
   • Usually the duosets do not have the entire kit such as plates and buffers, whereas the other kits are complete.
