A novel serine protease secreted by medicinal maggots enhances plasminogen activator-induced fibrinolysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Maggots of the blowfly Lucilia sericata are used for the treatment of chronic wounds. As haemostatic processes play an important role in wound healing, this study focused on the effects of maggot secretions on coagulation and fibrinolysis.

Protease inhibitors prevent plasminogen-mediated, but not pemphigus vulgaris-induced, acantholysis in human epidermis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Pemphigus is an autoimmune blistering disease of the skin and mucous membranes. It is caused by autoantibodies directed against desmosomes, which are the principal adhesion structures between epidermal keratinocytes.

Peripheral embolization following thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke—a case report

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery, 2020
Background Intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator is the only golden approved medical therapy for acute ischemic stroke, guidelines for its injection relay on reducing or preventing associated hemorrhage as a side effect, yet hemorrhage is ...

Thrombo-inflammatory biomarkers to predict sepsis outcome

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2021
Background: Sepsis has been redefined recently as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by dysregulated host responses to infection and septic shock. Soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (SuPAR) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1)

Effect of dsRNA on Mesangial Cell Synthesis of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor Type 1 and Tissue Plasminogen Activator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background/Aims: Viral infections are a major problem worldwide and many of them are complicated by virally induced glomerulonephritides. Progression of kidney disease to renal failure is mainly attributed to the development of renal fibrosis ...

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.

Gelsolin induces colorectal tumor cell invasion via modulation of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator cascade [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Gelsolin is a cytoskeletal protein which participates in actin filament dynamics and promotes cell motility and plasticity. Although initially regarded as a tumor suppressor, gelsolin expression in certain tumors correlates with poor prognosis and ...

Fibrinolysis regulation by platelets retaining plasminogen and tissue-type plasminogen activator on their surface [PDF]

open access: yesThe Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2019
Platelets play a key role in hemostasis as cofactors of thrombin generation, fibrin polymerization centers­, and initiators of clot retraction, while their ability to modulate clot dissolution remains less understood.

Leukocyte- and endothelial-derived microparticles: a circulating source for fibrinolysis

open access: yesHaematologica, 2012
Background We recently assigned a new fibrinolytic function to cell-derived microparticles in vitro. In this study we explored the relevance of this novel property of microparticles to the in vivo situation.Design and Methods Circulating microparticles ...
