Supplementary information

Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) also known as neutrophil collagenase is an enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 57 kDa. It belongs to the matrix metalloproteinase family which is involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix components. MMP-8 mainly expresses in neutrophils but can also be found in other tissues such as the skin lungs and liver. The expression of MMP-8 increases during inflammation and infection where it plays a critical role in tissue remodeling and repair processes.
Biological function summary

MMP-8 participates in the degradation of collagen types I II and III contributing to extracellular matrix remodeling. It acts independently rather than being part of a larger enzyme complex. Its activity is tightly regulated by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) to prevent excessive tissue damage. By modulating the extracellular matrix MMP-8 influences processes like wound healing cell migration and angiogenesis indicating its essential role in maintaining tissue homeostasis.

Pathways

MMP-8 plays a role in the inflammatory response and wound healing pathways. It interacts with and processes other proteins like pro-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors which are important for regulating these pathways. MMP-8 collaborates with matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in the inflammatory pathway to facilitate leukocyte migration and rapid tissue remodeling during acute inflammatory responses. Its regulation involves complex interactions among proteolytic enzymes emphasizing its function in balancing matrix degradation and formation.

MMP-8 is associated with periodontal disease and rheumatoid arthritis. In periodontal disease elevated MMP-8 levels can lead to breakdown of connective tissue and bone contributing to tooth loss. In rheumatoid arthritis MMP-8 alongside MMP-1 degrades joint cartilage collagen exacerbating the inflammation and joint damage. These associations underline MMP-8's potential as a biomarker for these diseases and highlight the need for MMP-8 testing tools such as MMP8 ELISA kits to monitor disease progression and treatment efficacy.
