arp 1

ARP 101 is an effective selective matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) inhibitor with anti-cancer activity. It induces the inhibition of HCMV through non-classical chelate 1 (SQSTM1) p62-Keap1-Nrf2 pathways and phosphorylation of the C-terminal domain of p62, regulating autophagy and inhibiting melanogenesis.

ARP-100 (MMP-2 Inhibitor III) is a potent and selective matrix metalloproteinase MMP-2 inhibitor (IC50=12 nM). ARP-100 interacts with the S1' pocket of MMP-2 and exhibits anti-invasive properties in an in vitro invasion Matrigel model. ARP-100 has low inhibitory activity against MMP-1 (>50 μM), MMP-3 (4.5 μM), MMP-7 (>50 μM) and MMP-9 (0.2 μM)[1][2].

ARP (Aldehyde reactive probe) is a chemical compound that serves as an aldehyde-reactive probe by specifically tagging AP sites in DNA with biotin residues. It is used to detect abasic sites, which are common forms of DNA damage and intermediates in mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. ARP is highly sensitive, capable of detecting abasic sites at the femtomolar level (fewer than 1 site per 10^4 nucleotides).
