Background
MMP-8, also known as neutrophil collagenase, is a zinc-dependent metalloproteinase encoded by the MMP8 gene. It is primarily expressed in neutrophils and is one of the key enzymes that initiates the degradation of fibrillar collagens, particularly type I collagen. In terms of physiological function, MMP-8 is not only involved in neural crest cell migration and tissue remodeling during embryonic development, but also plays a significant role in pathological processes such as atherosclerosis due to its potent collagenolytic activity—it degrades collagen in the fibrous cap of plaques, which is associated with plaque instability and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. In cancer research, the role of MMP-8 is complex, exhibiting both tumor-suppressive and tumor-promoting properties depending on the tumor type and microenvironment. As one of the most potent interstitial collagenases in degrading collagen, MMP-8 activity is finely regulated in vivo, making it a key participant in various inflammatory diseases and matrix remodeling-related disorders, as well as a potential therapeutic target.

Immunohistochemistry
IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human spleen. Anti-MMP-8 antibody was used at 1/2000 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
IHC shows positive staining in paraffin-embedded human colon cancer. Anti-MMP-8 antibody was used at 1/2000 dilution, followed by a HRP Polymer for Rabbit IgG (ready to use). Counterstained with hematoxylin. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH9.0 was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
