Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against human type-IV collagenase were developed and used for studies on enzyme activity and tumor-cell invasion in vitro. Fifteen MAb clones were generated against the enzyme purified from serum-free culture medium of human melanoma cells (A2058). Five clones affecting

We have investigated the effects of altered cell shape on the regulation of the 92 kDa type IV collagenase. In MDCK cells, anti-E-cadherin antibodies alter cell shape by disrupting normal cell-cell contacts, while sodium butyrate causes a marked flattening and spreading of cells. The disruption of c
## Abstract Hypoxia not only controls organogenesis, embryogenesis, and wound repair, but also triggers tumor progression and metastasis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), especially gelatinases (MMPβ2, MMPβ9) regulate the composition and stability of the extracellular matrix (ECM), which affects ce
