Structural highlights
Function
[MMP12_HUMAN] May be involved in tissue injury and remodeling. Has significant elastolytic activity. Can accept large and small amino acids at the P1' site, but has a preference for leucine. Aromatic or hydrophobic residues are preferred at the P1 site, with small hydrophobic residues (preferably alanine) occupying P3.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Oxaliplatin (OXA) is a valuable and largely used cancer drug which induces a serious and intractable neuropathy. The lipoyl-homotaurine derivative (ADM_12) reverts in vivo OXA-induced neuropathy, and it is an effective antagonist of the nociceptive sensor channel TRPA1. Unprecedentedly, this safe analgesic showed a synergy with OXA in vitro and proved to inhibit CA IX, a relevant therapeutic target, clearly interfering with pancreatic cancer cells' aggressiveness.
