Sensolyte assay for kinetic analysis of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity after BMP2- or BMP4-treatment. (A) A remarkable increase (~6 fold) in the slope of substrate cleavage by MMPs was seen against time for the BMP4-treated ARPE-19 cells in comparison with BMP2-treated ARPE-19 cells. (B) MMP2 activity was significantly (P < 0.001) increased after exposure to BMP4 but not BMP2; Black circles: control; Red squares: BMP2; Red Triangles: BMP4. Results are presented as mean ± SD; n = 4–6 per group.
