zymography of the gelatinolytic activities of MMPs. Analysis of the gelatinolytic activities of MMP9 (92 kDa), pro-MMP2 form (72 kDa) and MMP2 active form (62 kDa) of BZR cells incubated with different concentrations of EGCG (0, 5 and 7.5 μg/ml). A significant EGCG dose-dependent decrease (p < 0.05) of pro-MMP2 form was observed compared to control. Neither active MMP2 form, nor gelatinolytic activity for MMP9, were observed in presence of EGCG.
