BMDMs were lysed with 1% Triton X-100 in PBS and OmniMMP Fluorogenic Substrate (400 µM, BML-P126-0001, Enzo Life Sciences, Farmingdale, NY, USA) was added in the 1× Omni-buffer (50 mM HEPES, 10 mM CaCl2 in dH2O, pH 7.0). Fluorescence was measured at 2 min intervals from 0–300 min at an excitation of 320 nm and emission of 405 nm with a SpectraMax M2 and SoftMax Pro Software Version 5 (Molecular Devices).

Fluorogenic Assay for MMP-2 and MMP-12 Inhibition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MMP-2 and −12, and OmniMMP fluorogenic substrate were purchased from Enzo Life Sciences (Farmingdale, NY, USA). The assays were carried out in black 96-well plates (Corning). Each well contained a volume of 100 μL including buffer (50 mM HEPES, 10 mM CaCl2, 0.05% Brij-35, pH 7.5), human recombinant MMP (1.16 U/well of MMP-2, 0.007 U/well of MMP-12, Enzo Life Sciences), inhibitor (various concentrations, 1mM – 5 μM), and fluorogenic OmniMMP substrate (4 μM Mca-Pro-LeuGly-Leu-Dpa-Ala-Arg-NH2•AcOH, Enzo Life Sciences). The enzyme and inhibitor were incubated in solution at 37 °C for 30 min, followed by the addition of the substrate to initiate the reaction. The change in fluorescence was monitored over 20 min with excitation and emission wavelengths at 320 and 400 nm, respectively. The negative control wells, containing no inhibitor, were arbitrarily set as 100% activity. The positive control wells, containing 200 μM NSA, were arbitrarily set as 0% activity. MMP activity was defined as the ratio of fluorescence increase in the inhibitor wells relative to the negative control wells, expressed as a percentage. The assays were performed in triplicate.

Fluorometric MMP-2 Activity Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MMP-2 and OmniMMP fluorogenic substrate were purchased from Enzo
Life Sciences. The assays were carried out in black NUNC 96-well plates.
Each well contained a volume of 100 µL including buffer (50 mM
HEPES, 10 mM CaCl2, 0.05% (v/v) Brij-35, pH 7.5), human
recombinant MMP (1.16 U MMP-2, Enzo Life Sciences), inhibitor (100
µM), fluorogenic OmniMMP substrate (4 mM Mca-Pro-Leu
-Gly-Leu-Dpa-Ala-Arg-NH2·AcOH, Enzo Life Sciences). The mixture
of protein and inhibitor was pre-incubated in solution at 37
oC for 30 min, followed by the addition of the substrate
to initiate the reaction. The change in fluorescence was monitored for
30 min by BioTek synergy HT fluorescence plate readers with excitation
and emission wavelengths at 320 and 400 nm, respectively. The control
wells, containing no inhibitor, were arbitrarily set as 100% activity.
MMP activity was defined as the ratio of fluorescence increase in the
inhibitor wells relative to the negative control wells, expressed as a
percentage. The assays were performed in triplicate. The data were
normalized to values measured for uninhibited enzyme. Assay data are
reported as the mean±standard deviation.

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.
