Supplier:  Medchemexpress LLC HY1489051G

p-Aminophenylmercuric acetate is an organomercurial activator of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP). It participates in the activation and inhibition of MMP-8 by attacking protein sulfhydryl or inducing cysteine switching reactions. It also promotes the shedding of betacellulin precursor (pro-BTC) and influences the binding of agonists and antagonists to the opiate receptor.

• Organomercurial activator of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)
• Activates MMP-2 and MMP-9 at 0.5 mM for 30 minutes
• Decreases the apparent number of dihydromorphine binding sites and increases the sensitivity of agonist binding to the inhibitory effects of sodium in rat brain homogenate at 0-30 μM for 20 minutes
• Promotes the shedding of betacellulin precursor (pro-BTC)
• Influences the binding of agonists and antagonists to the opiate receptor
• Participates in the activation and inhibition of MMP-8
