Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Promotes Paracellular Transmigration of Neutrophils Via Mac-1, But Independently of Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. The underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear.

Featured Species-Specific Loops Are Found in the Crystal Structure of Mhp Eno, a Cell Surface Adhesin From Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
Enolase is an evolutionarily conserved enzyme involved in the processes of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae belongs to Mycoplasma, whose species are wall-less and among the smallest self-replicating bacteria, and is an important ...

Monitoring of fibrinolytic system activity with plasminogen, D-dimers and FDP in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after topical, intravenous or combined administration of tranexamic acid

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2020
Aim: We assessed various ways of tranexamic acid (TXA) administration on the fibrinolytic system. Blood loss, transfusions, drainage and haematoma were secondary outcomes.

Plasminogen–receptor KT: plasminogen activation and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2017
The cell surface orchestrates plasminogen activation through the concomitant binding of plasminogen and plasminogen activators to specific receptors. In this issue, Miles and colleagues describe their detailed phenotypic characterization of mice deficient in Plg-RKT, a key plasminogen receptor expressed in numerous tissues, but highly expressed by ...

Glu- and Lys-forms of plasminogen differentially affect phosphatidylserine exposure on the platelet surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plasminogen/plasmin system is known for its ability to support hemostatic balance of blood. However, plasminogen may be considered as an adhesive ligand and in this way could affect the functioning of blood cells. We showed that exogenous Lys-plasminogen,

Development and application of global assays of hyper‐ and hypofibrinolysis

open access: yesResearch and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2020
Numerous methods for evaluation of global fibrinolytic activity in whole blood or plasma have been proposed, with the majority based on tissue‐type plasminogen activator (t‐PA) addition to initiate fibrinolysis. We propose that such an approach is useful

Moonlighting Proteins at the Candidal Cell Surface

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
The cell wall in Candida albicans is not only a tight protective envelope but also a point of contact with the human host that provides a dynamic response to the constantly changing environment in infection niches.

Identification of the binding site for plasminogen kringle 5 in the α-chain of fibrin(ogen) D-fragment [PDF]

open access: yesThe Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2020
The interaction of the fifth kringle of Glu-plasminogen with fibrin triggers activation and initiation of fibrinolysis, yet the site on fibrin that binds kringle 5 remains unknown.

Staphylococcus aureus proteins Sbi and Efb recruit human plasmin to degrade complement C3 and C3b [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Upon host infection, the human pathogenic microbe Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) immediately faces innate immune reactions such as the activated complement system. Here, a novel innate immune evasion strategy of S. aureus is described.

Plasminogen-derived peptide promotes adipogenic differentiation of preadipocytes in vitro and in vivo

open access: yes, 2022
Soft tissue defects caused by adipose tissue loss can result in various conditions such as lipodystrophy in congenital diseases, trauma secondary to aging, and mastectomy in breast cancer; fat grafting is commonly performed to restore these defects ...
