Inhibition of the expression on MMP-2, 9 and morphological changes via human fibrosarcoma cell line by 6,6'-bieckol from marine alga Ecklonia cava
31 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-endopeptidases which can degrade extracellular matrix (ECM) components and play important roles in a variety of biological and pathological processes. 6,6'-bieckol isolated and characterized from an edible marine brown alga Ecklonia cava (EC), according to the comprehensive spectral analysis of MS and NMR data. Here the influence of 6,6'-bieckol on expressions...
