human ... MMP14(4323)

General description

MT1-MMP plays an important role during endothelial cell migration and matrix remodeling. Although the role of MT1-MMP in endothelial cell motility is not fully characterized, its activity appears to modulate endothelial migration, invasion, and formation of capillary tubes during the angiogenic response (Galvez, 2001). Mt1-MMP also appears to play a key role in monocyte revruitment during inflammation (Salomon, 2005).

Specificity

LEM-2/15.8 reacts with human MT1-MMP and displays crossreactivity with mouse specimens. This antibody was generated against the catalytic domain of MT1-MMP and is able to inhibit enzyme activity.

Immunogen

Epitope: catalytic domain
Synthetic peptide: amino acid sequence 218-233 within the catalytic domain

Application

Detect MMP-14 using this Anti-MMP-14 Antibody, catalytic domain, clone LEM-2/15.8 validated for use in ELISA, IP & WB.

Heat-shock factors (HSFs) are key transcriptional regulators in cell survival. Although HSF1 has been identified as a driver of carcinogenesis, HSF2 has not been explored in malignancies. Here, we report that HSF2 suppresses tumor invasion of prostate cancer (PrCa). In

MT1-MMP and MMP2 have been implicated as pro-tumorigenic and pro-metastatic factors in a wide variety of cancers including melanoma. We have previously demonstrated that MT1-MMP is highly expressed in melanoma where it promotes melanoma cell invasion and metastasis in part

A defining feature of malignant tumor progression is cellular penetration through the basement membrane and interstitial matrices that separate various cellular compartments. Accumulating evidence supports the notion that invasive cells employ specialized structures termed invadopodia to breach these structural barriers.

Our recent studies have highlighted membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-14 as a selective marker for an invasive subset of macrophages potentially related to atherosclerotic plaque progression. Moreover, colony stimulating factors (CSF) may exert divergent effects on macrophage MMP expression, possibly

Type I collagen-containing fibrils are major structural components of the extracellular matrix of vertebrate tissues, especially tendon, but how they are formed is not fully understood. MMP14 is a potent pericellular collagenase that can cleave type I collagen in vitro.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
