Scientific Data Images for Human MMP-9 Antibody

MMP-9 antibody in NS0 Mouse Cell Line by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

MMP-9 in NS0 Mouse Cell Line.

MMP-9 was detected in immersion fixed NS0 mouse myeloma cell line transfected with MMP-9 using 5 µg/mL Human MMP-9 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF911) for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained (red) and counterstained (green). View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.
MMP-9 antibody in Human Ovarian Cancer Tissue by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

MMP‑9 in Human Ovarian Cancer Tissue.

MMP-9 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human ovarian cancer tissue using Human MMP-9 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF911) at 10 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

MMP-9 antibody in MCF-7 Human Cell Line by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

MMP‑9 in MCF‑7 Human Cell Line.

MMP-9 was detected in immersion fixed MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line using Human MMP-9 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF911) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

Background: MMP-9

Pro-MMP-9 is an inactive proenzyme secreted by multiple cell types. The N-terminal pro region is proteolytically removed, resulting in active MMP-9 which can degrade collagens and elastin as well as several non-ECM molecules.
