Application

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.Please refer to the attached General ELISA KIT Procedure (sandwich, competitive & Indirect ELISA)

Mouse MMP-2 ELISA Kit has been used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to quantify matrix metalloproteinase -2 (MMP-2) secreted in supernatants by gold nanoparticles (AuNP)-loaded endothelial cells and superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle (SPION) loaded endothelial cells.

General description

Matrix Metallopeptidase 2 (MMP-2), also known as gelatinase A, belongs to the gelatinase subclass of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family. It contains zinc in the active site. MMP-2 cleaves gelatin, type IV, V, VII, X, and XI collagens, fibronectin, vitronectin, elastin, laminin, proteoglycans, and a range of non-extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Both MMP-2 and MMP9 are important for matrix degradation and they are implicated in the maintenance of neovascularization. The Mouse MMP-2 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of mouse MMP-2 in serum, plasma, cell culture supernatants, and urine.
