| TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 are inhibitory enzymes of matrix metalloproteinase family, and are thought to be of great importance in the maintenance of connective tissue integrity. TIMP-2 shows the highest binding affinity to both the latent (pro) and active forms of 72kD Type IV collagenase (also known as MMP-2 or gelatinase A). It also has affinity for the active form of 92kD Type IV collagenase (also known as MMP-9 or gelatinase B). TIMP-2 inhibits the proteolytic invasiveness of tumor cells and normal placental trophoblast cells. TIMP2 may be used to evaluate the invasive nature of some tumor types and determine the tissue disatribution of TIMPs in other tumors such as adenomas and also in normal tissue. | | | Catalog # | T5585-10AX | | Applications | Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Not suitable for use in Immunoprecipitation. Other applications not tested. | | Recommended Dilutions | Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml for 2hrs at RT | | Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/paraffin): 1:200 for 20 minutes at RT.
