Plasmin drives burn-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome

open access: yesJCI 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

Effects of stage of lactation and time of year on plasmin-derived proteolytic activity in bovine milk in New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The objective of this study was to determine the effects of stage of lactation (SOL) and time of year on plasmin-derived proteolytic activity in the milk of pasture-fed dairy cows in New Zealand. Four herds of 20 Friesian cows were used, one herd calving

Plasmin inhibitors prevent leukocyte accumulation and remodeling events in the postischemic microvasculature. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Clinical trials revealed beneficial effects of the broad-spectrum serine protease inhibitor aprotinin on the prevention of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. The underlying mechanisms remained largely unclear.

Inhibition of plasmin by fibrinogen [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1990
The kinetics of inhibition of the amidolytic activity of plasmin on D-Val-L-Leu-L-Lys p-nitroanilide hydrochloride (S-2251) by fibrinogen and fibrin were determined. Reciprocal (1/v versus 1/[S]) plots of plasmin inhibition by 0.50 microM-fibrinogen showed a non-linear downward curve.

Lens subluxation after plasmin and SF6 injections in rabbit eyes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
To investigate the rate of lens subluxation following plasmin and/or SF6 injections in eyes, and whether a subsequent elevated level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and vitreous tap would aggravate subluxation.Four groups of rabbits were ...

Increased Mosquito Midgut Infection by Dengue Virus Recruitment of Plasmin Is Blocked by an Endogenous Kazal-type Inhibitor

open access: yesiScience, 2019
Summary: Dengue symptoms include alteration of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis, causing severe hemorrhage and death. Here, we demonstrate that higher concentration of plasmin, the human fibrinolytic factor, in blood meal enhances dengue virus (DENV ...

Group B Streptococcus hijacks the host plasminogen system to promote brain endothelial cell invasion. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the leading cause of meningitis in neonates. We have previously shown that plasminogen, once recruited to the GBS cell surface and converted into plasmin by host-derived activators, leads to an enhancement of bacterial ...

New Insights on Plasmin Long Term Stability and the Mechanism of Its Activity Inhibition Analyzed by Quartz Crystal Microbalance

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
We used the research quartz crystal microbalance (RQCM) to monitor regulatory effects of plasmin and trypsin in the presence of their inhibitor α2-antiplasmin.
