Scientific Data Images for Human MMP-14/MT1-MMP Antibody

Detection of MMP-14/MT1-MMP in MDA‑MB‑231 Human Cell Line by Flow Cytometry.

MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell line was stained with Mouse Anti-Human MMP-14/MT1-MMP Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9181, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB0041, open histogram), followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B).

Detection of MMP-14/MT1-MMP in Human Prostate Cancer.

MMP-14/MT1-MMP was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of Human Prostate Cancer using Mouse Anti-Human MMP-14/MT1-MMP Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9181) at 15 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Mouse IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC001). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in epithelial cells.

Background: MMP-14/MT1-MMP

As the first member of membrane type (MT) MMPs, MMP-14, also known as MT1-MMP, plays an important role in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling by being able to degrade type I collagen, activate pro-MMP-2 and process cell adhesion molecules such as CD44 and integrin alpha_V (1). MMP-14 is therefore a key enzyme in many physiological and pathological processes such as angiogenesis and tumor invasion. Structurally, MMP-14 consists of the following domains: a pro domain containing the furin cleavage site, a catalytic domain containing the zinc-binding site, a hinge region, a hemopexin-like domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail (2).
