Notes: MMP-2/MMP-9 inhibitor I is a potent inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 (IC50s = 310 and 240 nM, respectively).{32343} It acts by binding zinc at the active site of these MMPs. MMP-2/MMP-9 inhibitor I is active in vivo as well as in vitro and blocks MMP-2/MMP-9-dependent invasion, tumor growth, and metastasis in both cell culture and mouse tumor models.{32343} This compound has been used to elucidate the roles of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in diverse systems, including mammary epithelial cell transformation, neuronal dysfunction, lymphocyte recruitment, and progressive hereditary kidney disease.{32340,32341,32342,32344}
