A novel biosensor for measuring plasmin activity [PDF]
Research and Practice in Thrombosis and HaemostasisBackground: Plasmin facilitates fibrinolysis by catalyzing the degradation of fibrin clots. Reliable methods to assess fibrinolysis by measuring plasmin generation are needed in the preclinical and clinical settings.

Recent Advances in Milk Plasmin and Factors Affecting Its Activity [PDF]
Shipin Kexue, 2023 Plasmin is an important factor affecting the shelf-life quality of milk products, and its hydrolytic activity is regulated by many factors, such as activators, inhibitors, and activator inhibitors.

Plasmin plays an essential role in amplification of psoriasiform skin inflammation in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND:Although increased levels of plasminogen activators have been found in psoriatic lesions, the role of plasmin converted from plasminogen by plasminogen activators in pathogenesis of psoriasis has not been investigated.

Induction of brain microvascular endothelial cell urokinase expression by Cryptococcus neoformans facilitates blood-brain barrier invasion. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The invasive ability of the blood-borne fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans can be enhanced through interactions with host plasma components, such as plasminogen.

Plasmin drives burn-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome
JCI Insight, 2021 Severe injuries, such as burns, provoke a systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) that imposes pathology on all organs. Simultaneously, severe injury also elicits activation of the fibrinolytic protease plasmin. While the principal adverse outcome

Unexpected timely fracture union in matrix metalloproteinase 9 deficient mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Immediately following a fracture, a fibrin laden hematoma is formed to prevent bleeding and infection. Subsequently, the organized removal of fibrin, via the protease plasmin, is essential to permit fracture repair through angiogenesis and ossification ...
