Animal metabolite data should not inform clinical gelatinase inhibitor use; leaves open metabolite contributions to MMP-2/9/14 inhibition in preclinical models.
The in vivo activity of the selective gelatinase inhibitor 1 is likely driven by its active metabolite, compound 21, which is a more potent inhibitor of MMP-2, MMP-9, and MMP-14.
Lee et al. (2007) studied this question.
