SB−3CT has been used as irreversible inhibitor of matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9) in cell cultures to exclude reciprocal regulation.[1]

SB−3CT is a potent matrix metalloproteinase MMP-2 and MMP-9 inhibitor.
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).
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
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

Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) plays a beneficial role in the delayed phase of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). However, the mechanism is obscure. Here, we constructed hypoxia response element (HRE)-regulated MMP-9 to explore its effect on glial scars and neurogenesis in

Ca(2+) entry through transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) results in swelling, blebbing, and detachment of the epithelium and capillary endothelium in the intact lung. Subsequently, increased permeability of the septal barrier and alveolar flooding ensue. In this study, we

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
