Application

SB−3CT has been used as irreversible inhibitor of matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9) in cell cultures to exclude reciprocal regulation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SB-3CT is a potent matrix metalloproteinase MMP-2 and MMP-9 inhibitor. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in a number of activities including angiogenesis and embryogenesis. In particular, gelatinases A (MMP-2) and B (MMP-9), are thought to facilitate tumor metastasis. SB-3CT exhibits a covalent mechanism based behavior in inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9. This inhibitor appears to have similarity to TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in the slow-binding component of inhibition. SB-3CT has been shown to directly bind to the zinc in the catalytic site of MMP-2. SB-3CT does not affect the activities of MMP-1 (Ki = 206 μM) MMP-3 (Ki = 15 μM), or MMP-7 (Ki = 96 μM).

Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has demonstrated considerable clinical benefit in several malignancies, but has shown favorable response in only a small proportion of cancer patients. Recent studies have shown that matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are highly associated with the microenvironment

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell- (BM-MSC-) based therapy is a promising option for regenerative medicine. An important role in the control of the processes influencing the BM-MSC therapeutic efficacy, namely, extracellular matrix remodelling and proliferation and secretion ability, is played

Matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 (MMP2/9) have previously been shown to be elevated in serum and amniotic fluid from women undergoing preterm birth. We performed experiments to determine the effects of MMP2/9 on uterine contraction and birth timing. Pregnant mice

Ischemic stroke induced matrixmetallo-proteinase-9 (MMP-9) upregulation, which increased blood-brain barrier permeability. Studies demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cell therapy protected blood-brain barrier disruption from several cerebrovascular diseases. However, the underlying mechanism was largely unknown. We therefore hypothesized that mesenchymal stem cells
