Product details:
What are recombinant multiclonals?
Recombinant multiclonals are a mixture of recombinant antibodies co-expressed from a library of heavy and light chains. They offer several advantages including:
- The sensitivity of polyclonal antibodies by recognising multiple epitopes
- High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- Improved sensitivity and specificity
- Long-term security of supply
- Animal-free batch production

MMP10 also known as stromelysin-2 is a member of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family. This protein is involved in the degradation of components of the extracellular matrix. MMP10 weighs around 54 kDa in its native form. It gets expressed in various tissues including the skin lung and reproductive organs and plays a part in processes like tissue remodeling and repair. Unlike other MMPs MMP10 does not usually cleave collagen but breaks down proteins like elastin and gelatin. The Luminex MMP assay is a method used to study this protein's expression and regulation.
Biological function summary
MMP10 impacts the restructuring and turnover of the extracellular matrix in both normal and disease conditions. It does not work alone; it operates synergistically with other MMPs in a complex matrix framework. Within tissues MMP10 modifies the integrity of the extracellular environment affecting cell behaviors such as migration and invasion. It steps in during processes like wound healing and inflammation exemplifying its contribution to cellular repair mechanisms and their regulation.
Pathways
The activity of MMP10 intersects with the MAPK and TGF-beta signaling pathways. MMP10 facilitates these pathways by digesting extracellular matrix barriers which then influences cellular responses. MMP10's function is also linked with other metalloproteinases like MMP1 and MMP3 in the pathways. Its regulation and activation play an important role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and responding to environmental cues.
MMP10 is associated with conditions such as cancer and arthritis. In cancer its role in promoting extracellular matrix breakdown facilitates tumor cell invasion and metastasis. In arthritis MMP10 contributes to joint tissue destruction perpetuating the inflammatory cycle. This protein frequently collaborates with MMP13 in these diseases reflecting its significant part in disease progression and pathology.
