General description

Anti-MMP-7 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total MMP-7 protein.
Matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP7) is also termed as matrilysin. It is located on human chromosome 11q21-->q22. It belongs to the MMP enzyme family and is highly expressed in cancer cells. MMP7 is exclusively released by epithelial cells.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human MMP-7.

Immunogen Range: 218-267

Application

Anti-MMP-7, C-Terminal antibody has been used in immunofluorescence.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Immunofluorescence (1 paper)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Overexpression of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP7) is observed in various cancers, such as breast, lung, prostate, esophagus, stomach, endometrium, and ovarian carcinomas, as well as esophageal squamous cell carcinomas. Activated MMP7 plays a vital role in human colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases. It is essential for the development of tumor in the absence of PKP3 (plakophilin3).
