Product Summary for Human MMP-9 ELISA Kit (Colorimetric)

Product Specifications

Assay Type

Sandwich ELISA

Kit Type

ELISA Kit (Colorimetric)

Reactivity

Human

Specificity

The cross reactivity and interference of circulating factors of the immune system was evaluated by spiking these proteins at physiologically relevant concentrations into a human MMP-9 positive sample. There was no cross reactivity or interference detected.

Description

This kit is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for quantitative detection.

Precision

Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) CV% < 7.3%

Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) CV% < 10.2%

Recovery for Human MMP-9 ELISA Kit (Colorimetric)

Recovery

Recoveries were determined in 2 independent experiments with 4 replicates each. The overall mean recovery was 103.1%.

Background: MMP-9

MMP-9 is a Zn+2 dependent endopeptidase, synthesized and secreted in monomeric form as zymogen. The structure is almost similar to MMP2, another member of matrixmetalloproteinase family. Like other proteolytic enzymes, MMP-9 is first synthesized as inactive proenzyme or zymogens. Activation of proMMP-9 is mediated by plasminogen activator/plasmin (PA/plasmin) system. The regulation of MMP-9 activity is also controlled through TIMP-3. MMP-9 plays an important role in tumor invasion, angiogenesis and metastasis. Increased levels of MMP-9 have been demonstrated in colorectal cancer, in acute leukemia, breast cancer, human melanoma and bladder cancer. MMP-9 potentiates pulmonary metastasis formation and glioma invasion. Apart from its function in tumor formation and spread, MMP-9 with its destructive effects is in close association with lung diseases and asthma. Leukocyte recruitment to the central nervous system MMP-9 means an involvement in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis. MMP-9 has a crucial role in reproductive endocrinology and shows a changed expression pattern after myocardial infarction.
