"The activity of MMPs are regulated by their TIMP inhibitors, and while proMMP-1, active MMP-1 and TIMP-1 bind to LRP1 with K D values of 19 nM, 25 nM, and 23 nM, respectively, our data reveal that the MMP-1 and TIMP-1 complex binds with approximately 30-fold higher affinity to LRP1 (K D = 0.6 nM) than either component alone."
