Mmp 9

Manufactured by Beyotime
Sourced in China

MMP-9 is a laboratory equipment used for the detection and quantification of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in various biological samples. MMP-9 is an enzyme involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix proteins, which play a crucial role in various physiological and pathological processes. The core function of this equipment is to provide accurate and reliable measurements of MMP-9 levels, enabling researchers and scientists to study its role in different research applications.

Total cellular protein was extracted with RIPA buffer (Beyotime). Cell lysates (20 μg per sample) were subjected to 10% SDS-PAGE, transferred to a PVDF membrane (Merck Millipore, Billerica, USA), blocked with 5% fat-free milk, and incubated with primary antibody (1:1000) at 4°C overnight. After that, the membrane was incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies (Beyotime). The bands were detected with a Bio‐Rad Imaging System (Bio-Rad, Hercules, USA) after incubation with ECL substrate. The following primary antibodies were used: CTSK (Beyotime), MMP-9 (Beyotime), nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFATc1; Abcam, Cambridge, UK), GAPDH (Cell Signaling Technology, Boston, USA), p38 (Cell Signaling Technology), p-p38 (Cell Signaling Technology), ERK (Cell Signaling Technology), p-ERK (Cell Signaling Technology), JNK (Cell Signaling Technology), p-JNK (Cell Signaling Technology), TAK1 (Beyotime), p-TAK1 (Beyotime), IKK (Beyotime), p-IKK (Beyotime), IκBα (Beyotime), p-IκBα (Beyotime), p65 (Beyotime), and p-p65 (Beyotime). GAPDH was used as an internal control.

IF staining was used to detect the specific expression of MMP-1 and MMP-9 in the cells. We treated HaCaT cells with 4% paraformaldehyde fixation, 0.2% Triton X-100 permeabilization, and 1% BSA closure and finally added the following primary antibodies: MMP-1 (1:200; Cat. No. AF0231; Beyotime) and MMP-9 (1:200; Cat. No. K001664P; Solarbio) and then incubated the cells overnight at 4°C. The following day, goat anti-rabbit IgG-FITC secondary antibody (1:500; Cat. No. A0562; Beyotime) was added, and finally the nuclei were stained with DAPI, and images were obtained.

RIPA buffer (Beyotime, China) was used to lyse cells to obtain total protein, and the protein concentration was determined by BCA method. The same amount of samples were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the protein was transferred to the PVDF membrane (Millipore, Burlington, United States). After blocking with 5% skim milk powder (Beyotime, China) for 2 h at room temperature, the membrane and antibody were incubated overnight at 4°C. The primary antibodies were as follows: AMPK, NF-κB, p-NF-κB, MMP9, MMP2, TIMP-2, E-cadherin, Vimentin and β-actin (Beyotime, China). Then incubated with HRP-labeled Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H + L) (Beyotime, China) at room temperature for 2 h. Protein bands were detected by enhanced chemiluminescence (Tanon chemiluminescent gel imaging system, Tanon-5200Multi, China).

The separation, extraction, and identification of the total alkaloids from Plumula Nelumbinis (TAPN), neferine, liensinine, and isoliensinine were performed as described in our previous study (Liu et al., 2009 (link); Jiang et al., 2018a (link); Chen et al., 2020 (link)). Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (C6164, Darmstadt, Germany). High-glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) and fetal bovine serum (FBS) were purchased from Gibco (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Primary antibodies against collagen1, collagen3, MMP2, MMP9, PCNA, PIM1, p-SRC, and SRC were purchased from Beyotime (Shanghai, China). α-Tubulin was purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (CA, United States).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
