Scientific Data Images for Mouse MMP-9 Antibody [Biotin]

MMP-9 antibody in Mouse Splenocytes by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

MMP‑9 in Mouse Splenocytes.

MMP-9 was detected in immersion fixed mouse splenocytes using Goat Anti-Mouse MMP-9 Biotinylated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAF909) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Streptavidin (red; Catalog # NL999) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

MMP‑9 in Mouse Thymus.

MMP‑9 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of mouse thymus using Goat Anti-Mouse MMP‑9 Biotinylated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAF909) at 5 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Goat IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC004). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # CTS013). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm in thymocytes.

Background: MMP-9

Matrix metalloproteinases are a family of zinc and calcium dependent endopeptidases with the combined ability to degrade all the components of the extracellular matrix. MMP-9 (gelatinase B) can degrade a broad range of substrates including gelatin, collagen types IV and V, elastin, and proteoglycan core protein. It is believed to act synergistically with interstitial collagenase (MMP-1) in the degradation of fibrillar collagens as it degrades their denatured gelatin forms. MMP-9 is produced by keratinocytes, monocytes, macrophages, and PMN leukocytes. MMP-9 is present in most cases of inflammatory responses. Structurally, MMP-9 may be divided into five distinct domains: a pro-domain which is cleaved upon activation, a gelatin-binding domain consisting of three contiguous fibronectin type II units, a catalytic domain containing the zinc binding site, a proline-rich linker region, and a carboxyl terminal hemopexin-like domain. Compared to the human MMP-9
(Catalog # http://www.rndsystems.com/product_results.aspx?k=911-MP">911-MP), the mouse enzyme contains extra sequences in the linker region and in the hemopexin-like domain, respectively.
