Anaspec has introduced a comprehensive collection of anti-MMP zebrafish (Z-Fish) specific antibodies.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are members of a range of secreted or membrane-associated zinc endopeptidases involved in normal and diseased-tissue remodelling.
They are capable of degrading all kinds of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, but can also process a number of bioactive molecules.
MMPs are key players in normal and pathological processes, including embryogenesis, wound healing, inflammation, arthritis and cancer.
The company's existing portfolio of MMP research products includes Sensolyte MMP assay kits, GO (catalogue) MMP peptides, and MMP recombinant proteins products.
