malfunction | abrogation of MMP-8 activity by specific inhibitors as well as transfection with MMP-8 siRNA abolishes production of the cleavage fragment and occludin remained attached to the cell periphery | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | MMP-8 is involved in the proteolytic cleavage of the tight junction protein occludin, resulting in its disappearance from the cell periphery and cleavage to a lower-sized 50-kDa protein in infected human brain microvascular endothelial cells | Homo sapiens |
