Specifications
Target Information
Equine metalloproteinase inhibitor 2 (TIMP-2) is a key regulator of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are enzymes responsible for degrading extracellular matrix (ECM) components. TIMP-2 specifically inhibits MMP-2, a gelatinase that degrades type IV collagen, a major component of basement membranes. This inhibition is crucial for maintaining ECM integrity and regulating tissue remodeling processes in horses. TIMP-2 is expressed in various tissues, including synovial fluid, where it helps maintain joint health by controlling proteolysis and preventing excessive ECM breakdown.
