Background of MMP8
MMP8 (Matrix metalloproteinase 8) is a member of the family of matrix metalloproteinases. It is distinct from the collagenase of skin fibroblasts and synovial cells in substrate specificity and immunologic crossreactivity. MMP8 is mapped to 11q21-q22. MMP8 is an enzyme that degrades fibrillar collagens imparting strength to the fetal membranes, is expressed by leukocytes and chorionic cytotrophoblast cells. The enzyme exhibits 58% homology to human fibroblast collagenase and has the same domain structure. It consists of a 20-residue signal peptide, and an 80-residue propeptide that is lost on autolytic activation by cleavage of an M-L bond. MMP8 was found to possess 57% identity with the deduced protein sequence for fibroblast collagenase with 72% chemical similarity. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have fundamental roles in tumor progression, but most clinical trials with MMP inhibitors have not shown improvements in individuals with cancer. MMP8 has a paradoxical protective role in cancer and provides a genetic model to evaluate the molecular basis of gender differences in cancer susceptibility.

Western blot analysis of MMP8 using anti-MMP8 antibody (PB9726).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 40ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: K562 Whole Cell Lysate,
Lane 2: JURKAT Whole Cell Lysate.
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-MMP8 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PB9726) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for MMP8 at approximately 60KD. The expected band size for MMP8 is at 53KD.

IHC analysis of MMP8 using anti-MMP8 antibody (PB9726).
MMP8 was detected in paraffin-embedded section of Human Appendicitis Tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1μg/ml rabbit anti-MMP8 Antibody (PB9726) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC)(Catalog # SA1022) with DAB as the chromogen.
