Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 4, also called Metalloproteinase inhibitor 4, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the TIMP4 gene. This gene belongs to the TIMP gene family. The proteins encoded by this gene family are inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of peptidases involved in degradation of the extracellular matrix. This gene is mapped to 3p25.2. The secreted, netrin domain-containing protein encoded by this gene is involved in regulation of platelet aggregation and recruitment and may play role in hormonal regulation and endometrial tissue remodeling.

Useful in Sandwich ELISA for Quantitative Detection of Antigen. Aliquot 0.1ml per well of the 5000pg/ml, 2500pg/ml, 1250pg/ml, 625pg/ml, 312pg/ml, 156pg/ml, 78pg/ml human TIMP-4 standard solutions into the precoated 96-well plate. Add 0.1ml of the sample diluent buffer into the control well (Zero well). Add 0.1ml of each properly diluted sample of human cell culture supernates, serum, plasma(heparin , EDTA) or human milk to each empty well. We recommend that each human TIMP-4 standard solution and each sample is measured in duplicate.
