Plasminogen activation in cancer [PDF]

, 2004
The subject of this thesis focusses on the role of the plasminogen activation system in angiogenesis and cancer. The plasminogen activation system regulates fibrinolysis and controls cell migration and invasion by plasmin-mediated matrix proteolysis ...

IL‐33 Drives Inflammatory Changes and Extracellular Trap Formation in Eosinophils Involving Oxidised LDL and Complement Pathways

Allergy, EarlyView.
IL‐33 induces inflammatory gene signatures in eosinophils, characterised by the upregulation of cell surface markers, inflammatory mediators and regulatory factors, all of which were also observed in nasal polyp‐derived eosinophils. Ox‐LDL and complement fragments (C3a and C5a) promote eosinophil adhesion and survival.

Plasminogen Activator in Epidermal Homeostasis. [PDF]

, 1982
Increased plasminogen activator activity has been correlated with cell migration and tissue remodelling. The epidermis is a dynamic stratified tissue requiring both cell migration and tissue remodelling to maintain homeostasis. This correlation suggested

Synergy between HA cleavage site sequence and NA-mediated plasminogen recruitment as a virulence mechanism for low-pathogenic avian influenza

mBio
An outbreak of H3N1 low-pathogenic avian influenza virus (LPAIV) in Belgium in 2019 caused unexpected levels of mortality and morbidity in poultry. These viruses possess an NA polymorphism associated with plasminogen (PLG) binding, as well as an atypical

Multifactorial Nature of Childhood Stroke Presents a Major Challenge for Diagnosis and Management: A Population‐Based Study From Southern Finland

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Childhood ischemic stroke is rare but causes substantial long‐term morbidity, and its heterogeneous aetiology complicates timely diagnosis and management. Methods We conducted a retrospective population‐based observational study using hospital data and chart review to describe diagnostics, treatment and outcomes of ischemic stroke in ...

Renal‐vascular axis: unmasking its role in vascular endothelial growth factor‐inhibitor vascular toxicity in cancer patients

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Vascular toxicity is a growing concern in cancer patients receiving vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (VEGFi) therapy, posing a significant threat to patient prognosis. While the primary mechanism of VEGFi‐induced vascular toxicity is linked to redox‐sensitive reactions that disrupt vascular tone, leading to hypertension and ...

Re‐thinking peripheral dysfunctions in obesity: The emerging role of sulphaceutics and sulphanutraceutics

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Obesity is a chronic, relapsing, multisystem disease in which cardiometabolic risk arises from excess adiposity and progressive dysfunction of peripheral organs, ultimately disrupting endocrine and metabolic crosstalk among tissues. Within this network, sulphur‐based biology, centred on hydrogen sulphide and related reactive sulphur species, has ...

Mechanism of plasminogen activation by staphylokinase [PDF]

, 1993
Staphylokinase expresses plasminogen activator activity by forming a complex with plasminogen. A cross-linked staphylokinase/plasminogen complex was produced with disuccinimidyl suberate, and its enzymatic characteristics were compared with those of a ...
