Abstract

Abstract : Ad -proline peptidomimetic targeting MMP-2 and MMP-9 was identified from a pool of compounds following enzyme inhibition kinetics and Matrigel sponge assays, showing the capacity of blocking capillary network formation in vivo . Abstract : Ad -proline peptidomimetic targeting MMP-2 and MMP-9, being involved during tumor cell invasion and angiogenesis, was identified from a pool of compounds following enzyme inhibition kinetics and zymography, clearly highlighting the invasion inhibitory activity and capacity of blocking capillary network formation in vivo .
