Marimastat (BB-2516) is a broad spectrum matrix metalloprotease (MMP) inhibitor with specificity towards MMP-9, MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-14 and MMP-7 and IC50 values of 3, 5, 6, 9 and 13 nM respectively. MMPs are a homologous family of enzymes involved in tissue remodeling and morphogenesis, where collectively, these enzymes are capable of degrading all components of the extracellular matrix, and they play an important role in wound healing and other processes involving tissue remodeling. Research shows that Marimastat inhibits CD30 shedding in Karpas 299 cells with an IC50 of 1 microM and also inhibits lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced soluble TNF-alpha production in a dose-dependent manner. The enzyme Tumor necrosis factor alpha convertase (TACE), reported to be closely related to matrix metalloproteinases, is responsible for the processing of pro-TNFalpha to TNFalpha and is specifically inhibited by Marimastat with an IC50 of 3.8 nM. Studies show that Marimastat, as a peptide hydroxamate compound, also inhibits peritoneal dissemination of human gastric cancer cells through tumor angiogenesis inhibition.
