ABSTRACT
Dental caries is a chronic and destructive disease and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) plays a major role in caries. The inhibitory mechanisms of theaflavins [theaflavin (TF1), theaflavin-3-gallate (TF2A), theaflavin-3'-gallate (TF2B), and theaflavin-3,3'-digallate (TF3)] on MMP-2 were investigated using techniques such as enzyme inhibition kinetics, multi-spectral methods, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations. The results showed that TF1, TF2A, TF2B, and TF3 all competitively and reversibly inhibited MMP-2 activity. Fluorescence spectra and molecular docking indicated that four theaflavins spontaneously bind to MMP-2 through noncovalent interactions, driven by hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions, constituting a static quenching mechanism and resulting in an altered tryptophan residue environment around MMP-2. Molecular dynamic simulations demonstrated that four theaflavins can form stable, compact complexes with MMP-2. In addition, the order of theaflavins' ability to inhibit MMP-2 was found to be TF1 > TF2B > TF2A > TF3. Interestingly, the order of binding capacity between MMP-2 and TF1, TF2A, TF2B, and TF3 was consistent with the order of inhibitory capacity, and was opposite to the order of steric hindrance of theaflavins. This may be due to the narrow space of the active pocket of MMP-2, and the smaller the steric hindrance of theaflavins, the easier it is to enter the active pocket and bind to MMP-2. This study provided novel insights into theaflavins as functional components in the exploration of natural MMP-2 inhibitors.
