“…First, the specificity of the collagenase was assessed by analyzing the degradative products of 3H-collagen on SDS-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. The pattern of 3H-labeled peptides showed the presence of distinct bands corresponding to al(1)" and d(I)* as well as ~l ( 1 )~ and c~2(1)~ peptides of type I collagen; these bands represent 3/4 and Y4 fragments of collagen a-chains, respectively (20) (Figure 4). Thus, the results indicate that the monocyte collagenase cleaves type I collagen in the same region as do other vertebrate type collagenases (21).…”

“…The enzyme reaction was terminated by boiling for 5 minutes after addition of sample buffer without 2-mercaptoethanol. Intact collagen a chains and their 3/4 (aA) and ?h (aB) degradation products were separated by 11% SDS-PAGE (41). The percentage of collagen degraded was estimated by image analysis (Molecular Analyst; Bio-Rad) of Coomassie blue-stained gels.…”

“…Saliva samples were assayed for interstitial collagenase activities by the quantitative SDS PAGE Laser densitometric modification [17][18][19]21,22] of the original assay developed by Turto et al [26]. Salivary samples were assayed for interstitial collagenase activities with (total collagenase activity) and without (endogenously active interstitial collagenase) 1 mM aminophenylmercuric acetate (APMA) treatment, an optimal organomercurial activator of both latent fibroblasl type and neutrophil interstitial collagenases.…”
