    Product Description

    MeOSuc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Ala-CMK (MSACK) is a peptide inhibitor of polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) and pancreatic elastases (IC50s = 2.8 and 15.2 µM, respectively, for the human enzymes).1 It inhibits PMN elastase-mediated collagen cleavage in isolated porcine articular cartilage.2 MSACK decreases serum amylase levels and leukocyte pancreatic infiltration in a rat model of cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis.1 It also reduces E-cadherin cleavage and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in rat pancreatic lysates prepared from the same model.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
