FFNT25 ameliorates unilateral ureteral obstruction-induced renal fibrosis

open access: yesRenal Failure, 2019
Renal fibrosis is a common pathological feature of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients who progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). With the increasing incidence of CKD, it is of importance to develop effective therapies that blunt development of ...

Effect of Pioglitazone on the Fructose-Induced Abdominal Adipose Tissue Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aim. To test the potential role of PPARγ in the endocrine abdominal tissue dysfunction induced by feeding normal rats with a fructose rich diet (FRD) during three weeks. Methodology. Adult normal male rats received a standard commercial diet (CD) or FRD,

PAI-1 Overexpression in Valvular Interstitial Cells Contributes to Hypofibrinolysis in Aortic Stenosis

open access: yesCells, 2023
Aortic stenosis (AS) is associated with hypofibrinolysis, but its mechanism is poorly understood. We investigated whether LDL cholesterol affects plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) expression, which may contribute to hypofibrinolysis in AS ...

PAI-1 and Cellular Migration [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2002
“Do not dabble in paradox, it puts you in danger of fortuitous wit.”— T. Stoppard, Arcadia, 1995 The migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays an important role in the response to vascular injury and in atherosclerosis. In fact, the focal accumulation of smooth muscle in the arterial intima is thought to make a critical contribution to ...

Polymorphisms of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, angiotensin converting enzyme and coagulation factor XIII genes in patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We investigated polymorphisms of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE ) and coagulation factor XIII (FXIII) genes and their association with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) in Iranian patients and normal ...

Longitudinal assessment of D-dimer and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 plasma levels in pregnant women with risk factors for preeclampsia

open access: yesHypertension in Pregnancy, 2019
Objective: Investigating D-Dimer/D-Di and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1/PAI-1 levels throughout gestation in women with preeclampsia/PE risk factors. Methods: D-Di and PAI-1 plasma levels were determined in 28 women at 12–19, 20–29, 30–34 and 35–

A non-lethal traumatic/hemorrhagic insult strongly modulates the compartment-specific PAI-1 response in the subsequent polymicrobial sepsis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
IntroductionPlasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) is a key factor in trauma- and sepsis-induced coagulopathy. We examined how trauma-hemorrhage (TH) modulates PAI-1 responses in subsequent cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced sepsis, and the ...

The role of the platelet pool of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 in well-controlled type 2 diabetes patients.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
BackgroundThe main inhibitor of the fibrinolytic system, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor -1 (PAI-1), irreversibly binds tissue-type Plasminogen Activator (t-PA) and thereby inhibits the protective action of tPA against thrombus formation. Elevated levels

The relationship between obesity and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 type plasma levels in patients with severe traumatic brain injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 type (PAI-1) is the principal inhibitor of fibrinolysis. The production of PAI-1 by adipose tissue could be an important contributor to the elevated PAI-1 plasma levels.

Unique secretory dynamics of tissue plasminogen activator and its modulation by plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in vascular endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We analyzed the secretory dynamics of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in EA.hy926 cells, an established vascular endothelial cell (VEC) line producing GFP-tagged tPA, using total internal reflection fluorescence (TIR-F) microscopy.
