MMP-2 expression is dependent on extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN), Her2\/neu, growth factors, cytokines, and hormones. Pro-MMP-2 activation needs MT1-MMP and TIMP-2 contribution. MMP-2 is changed in distribution and increased in amount in the ventral cochlear nucleus after unilateral cochlear ablation. A low level of MMP-2 is linked to favorable prognosis in patients with a hormone receptor-negative tumor, usually associated with high risk. As a zymogen requiring proteolytic activation for catalytic activity, MMP-2 has been implicated broadly in the invasion and metastasis of many cancer model systems, including human breast cancer (HBC). Blocking MMP-2 secretion and activation during breast carcinoma development may decrease metastasis. The detection of active MMP-2 alone or the rate of pro-MMP-2 and active MMP-2 is considered a very sensitive indicator of cancer metastasis. Modulation of MMP-2 expression and activation through specific inhibitors and activators may thus provide a new mechanism for breast cancer treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConcentration\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eActivity\u003c\/b\u003e:Not validated for activity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSequence\u003c\/b\u003e:Lys 36-Gly 341\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePurity\u003c\/b\u003e: \u0026gt; 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e:Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.\u003cbr\u003eNormally 5%-8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.\u003cbr\u003ePlease refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReconstitution\u003c\/b\u003e:It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.5 mg\/mL.
