Background of MMP9
Matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9), also known as 92 kDa type IV collagenase, 92 kDa gelatinase or gelatinase B (GELB), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MMP9 gene. Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes. Most MMPs are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The enzyme encoded by this gene degrades type IV and V collagens. Studies in rhesus monkeys suggest that the enzyme is involved in IL-8-induced mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells from bone marrow, and murine studies suggest a role in tumor-associated tissue remodeling.

Western blot analysis of MMP9 using anti-MMP9 antibody (PB9668).
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 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human A549 whole cell lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA 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-MMP9 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PB9668) 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 1:5000 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 MMP9 at approximately 79 kDa. The expected band size for MMP9 is at 79 kDa.

MMP9 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human liver cancer 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 2 μg/ml rabbit anti-MMP9 Antibody (PB9668) 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.

Pam3 CM up-regulates fibrogenic and osteogenic mediators in AVICs independent of TLR2. A–C AVICs were exposed to Pam3 (0.03 μg/ml), control CM or Pam3 CM for 48 h. Levels of collagen I, collagen IV, MMP-2, MMP-9, ALP and RUNX2 were determined by immunoblotting. Representative immunoblots and densitometric data show that Pam3 CM selectively up-regulated collagen I, MMP-2 and ALP in AVICs among the fibrogenic and osteogenic factors examined while control CM or a low concentration of Pam3 had no effect. D AVICs were pretreated with TLR2 inhibitor CU CPT 22 (10 µM) or DMSO for 1 h and then exposed to Pam3 CM treatment for 48 h. Inhibition of TLR2 in AVICs did not alter the effect of Pam3 CM on the upregulation of collagen I, MMP-2 and ALP. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. n = 5 cell isolates from distinct donor valves in each group. *P < 0.05 vs. untreated control

Would PB9668 anti-MMP9 antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-04-25
Answer
It shows on the product datasheet, PB9668 anti-MMP9 antibody as been validated on WB. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.

My question regarding product PB9668, anti-MMP9 antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2017-09-06
Answer
We do not recommend storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free PB9668 anti-MMP9 antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.
