MMP13-IN-2 is a highly potent, selective, and orally active inhibitor of MMP-13. It demonstrates exceptional potency against MMP-13, with an IC50 value of 0.036 nM, and exhibits selectivities greater than 1,500-fold over MMP-1, 3, 7, 8, 9, 14, and TACE. Moreover, MMP13-IN-2 possesses the capability to effectively inhibit collagen release from cartilage in vitro. Consequently, MMP13-IN-2 holds great potential for advancing research on collagenase-related diseases.
Highly potent and selective MMP13inhibitor (IC50 = 6.9 pM). Exhibits >2600-fold selectivity for MMP13 over related MMPs. Inhibits degradation of bovine nasal septum cartilage explants in vitro .
