Verification Images

  • Experimental Validation Results for MMP2 Antibody (YA5459)
    Western blot analysis was performed on protein extracts (25 μg) from Mouse heart (lane 2) using MMP2 antibody. Proteins were transferred onto a 0.45 μm PVDF membrane using the Trans-Blot® Turbo™ system for 13 min. The membrane was then blocked with 5% nonfat milk in TBST (HY-K1025) for 1 h at room temperature. The primary antibody (1:1000) and loading control antibody GAPDH Antibody (HRP) (HY-P80954A) (1:5000) were diluted in 5% nonfat milk in TBST and incubated with the membrane overnight at 4°C. After washing, the membrane of primary antibody was incubated with HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit/mouse IgG secondary antibody (HY-P8001/HY-P8004) (1:5000) diluted in 5% nonfat milk in TBST for 1 h at room temperature. Protein bands were visualized using an Ultra High Sensitivity ECL detection kit (HY-K1005).

    Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded rat colon tissue using MMP2 Antibody. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) for 8 minutes. The tissues were blocked in QuickBlock for 20 minutes at room temperature, washed with ddH2O and PBS, and then probed with the primary antibody at 1/100 dilution in 4℃ overnight. The detection was performed using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

Background

  • Function

    MMP-2 (matrix metalloproteinase-2), also known as gelatinase A, is a zinc-dependent extracellular endopeptidase that plays a central role in extracellular matrix remodeling through the degradation of gelatin, type IV collagen, and other basement membrane components[6][7]. Mechanistically, MMP-2 is synthesized as a latent proenzyme and is activated at the cell surface through the MT1-MMP/TIMP-2/pro-MMP-2 activation complex, linking its proteolytic activity to tightly regulated pericellular signaling and matrix turnover[1][2]. Through these functions, MMP-2 contributes to cell migration, tissue remodeling, angiogenesis, and inflammatory regulation, making it an important mediator of both physiological repair processes and pathological tissue remodeling[6][7]. Dysregulated MMP-2 expression or activation has been associated with cancer progression, cardiovascular disorders, kidney disease, diabetic complications, and fibrotic conditions, where excessive extracellular matrix degradation promotes disease development and tissue dysfunction[6]. In tumor models, elevated MMP-2 activity correlates with invasive behavior, metastatic dissemination, and angiogenic remodeling, supporting its widespread use as a biomarker and mechanistic target in cancer research[3][4]. Compared with the closely related gelatinase MMP-9, MMP-2 is constitutively expressed in many tissues and is preferentially regulated through MT1-MMP- and TIMP-2-dependent activation mechanisms, whereas MMP-9 is more commonly induced by inflammatory stimuli and exhibits distinct substrate and regulatory profiles[7]. For experimental applications, broad-spectrum metalloproteinase inhibitors such as batimastat have been widely used to investigate MMP-2-dependent signaling and matrix remodeling, although selective targeting remains an active area of therapeutic development[5].

  • Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification

    P08253 has 3 isomers: P08253-1: 73882 Da (predicted); P08253-2: 65765 Da (predicted); P08253-3: 68831 Da (predicted).
    Phosphorylation on multiple sites modulates enzymatic activity. Phosphorylated by PKC in vitro;The propeptide is processed by MMP14 (MT-MMP1) and MMP16 (MT-MMP3). Autocatalytic cleavage in the C-terminal produces the anti-angiogenic peptide, PEX. This processing appears to be facilitated by binding integrinv/beta3

  • Subunit

    Interacts (via the C-terminal hemopexin-like domains-containing region) with the integrin alpha-V/beta-3; the interaction promotes vascular invasion in angiogenic vessels and melamoma cells. Interacts (via the C-terminal PEX domain) with TIMP2 (via the C-terminal); the interaction inhibits the degradation activity. Interacts with GSK3B
