MMP9 | matrix metallopeptidase 9 (gelatinase B, 92kDa gelatinase, 92kDa type IV collagenase) | 4318 | Breast Carcinoma | MDA-MB-231 | - | - | - | - | The activity of MMP-9 was suppressed in a dose-dependent manner, but the MMP-2 activity was not significantly changed when HepG2 and Hep3B cells were treated with 6-gingrol (5, 10, 25, and 50 µM),respectively. The inhibitory effect on MMP-9 in hepatoma cells by 6-gingroll may be through the regulation of both uPA and TIMP-1. Analysis with semi-quantitative reverse transcription-PCR showed that the regulation of MMP-9 by 6-gingrol . | 17683926 |
