“Effects of collagenase were prevented by several procedures that inhibit collagenolytic activity (heating at various temperatures and incubation with metal-complexing agents such as EDTA , penicillamine and dithiothreitol).”
“The agglutination reaction was strongest at neutral pH and was impaired after either addition of EDTA or previous digestion of the fibrillar material by collagenase or pepsin.”
“The induced collagenase cleaved native type I collagen into the 3/4 and 1/4-length fragments and showed the inhibition by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid characteristic of the action of mammalian collagenases.”
“By analogy, it can be implied that the isolation of intestinal mononuclear cells using EDTA and collagenase may influence some of their cytotoxic activities in vitro.”
“ Collagen-peptidase activity in extracts of HeLa cells and human tumours is inactivated by Razoxane (ICRF-159), cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil, thiotepa, aprotinin, EDTA and phenanthroline.”
