Fibrinolytic agents for peripheral arterial occlusion. [PDF]
Peripheral arterial thrombolysis is used in the management of peripheral arterial ischaemia. Streptokinase was originally used but safety concerns led to a search for other agents. Urokinase and recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) have increasingly become established as first line agents for peripheral arterial thrombolysis.

Combining antithrombotic and fibrinolytic agents: can it be done? [PDF]
More than half of ischemic stroke patients who are treated with IV recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rtPA) remain disabled at 3 months.1,2 The reasons are many. The IV rtPA rate of recanalizing occluded arteries is not as high as we would like, especially for large arterial occlusions, which are opened only 30% to 40% of the time.3–6 When ...

Plant-Derived Compounds and Extracts as Modulators of Plasmin Activity—A Review
Functionality of the fibrinolytic system is based on activity of its central enzyme, plasmin, responsible for the removal of fibrin clots. Besides the hemostasis, fibrinolytic proteins are also involved in many other physiological and pathological ...
