MMP-9-IN-1(CAT: I017525) is a compound that acts as a specific inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). It selectively targets the hemopexin (PEX) domain of MMP-9, distinguishing it from other members of the matrix metalloproteinase family. By inhibiting the activity of MMP-9, MMP-9-IN-1 helps regulate extracellular matrix remodeling and degradation processes. This specific targeting of MMP-9 offers potential therapeutic applications in conditions where MMP-9 activity is dysregulated, such as cancer metastasis, inflammation, and tissue remodeling disorders.
