Figure 2

Gelatin zymography of culture medium conditioned by undifferentiated THP-1 cells and differentiated THP-1 cells. Cells were cultured in serum-free medium for 5–20 h, and the conditioned media were collected and analyzed for MMP activity by gelatin zymography. (a) image of gelatin zymography. Top two bands correspond to MMP-9 gelatinase, lower two bands to MMP-2 gelatinase. (b), (c), (d) Densitometry analysis of MMP activity. The value of MMP activity of undifferentiated THP-1 cells is shown as control (100%). Mean ± SE of at least 6 independent samples per group. p < 0.05, Student's t test.
