Tissue Plasminogen Activator

New England Journal of Medicine, 1988
TISSUE plasminogen activator (t-PA) is a naturally occurring protein that catalyzes the conversion of the inactive proenzyme plasminogen into the active serine protease plasmin.

Activators of Plasminogen

1986
Fluidity of the blood without hemorrhage is maintained by the physiological equilibrium between the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems, each of which is comprised of intrinsic and extrinsic components. Activators of fibrinogen are compounds whose teleological function is the dissolution of fibrin clots which could potentially upset this hemostatic ...

Plasminogen activator inhibitors

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1991
Plasminogen activator inhibitors (PAIs) regulate plasminogen activation in normal and pathologic processes. Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) is the major physiologic inhibitor of both tissue-type and urokinase-type plasminogen activators. It is a highly regulated single-chain glycoprotein, whose overexpression in vivo impairs the fibrinolytic ...

Activation of Val442-plasminogen (mini-plasminogen) by urokinase, streptokinase and tissue plasminogen activator

Thrombosis Research, 1988
Glu-plasminogen (Glu-plg), Lys-plg and Val442-plg (mini-plg) were activated by urokinase (UK), streptokinase (SK) or tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA). Their activation rates were kinetically analyzed. UK activated Lys-plg with smaller Km and nearly identical Vmax as Glu-plg.

Plasminogen activator and cancer

European Journal of Cancer and Clinical Oncology, 1984
Plasminogen activator is a protease which catalyses the conversion of the inactive plasminogen to the active plasmin. Most transformed cell lines and solid tumors produce elevated levels of plasminogen activator compared with nontransformed counterparts. This increased synthesis of plasminogen activator may play a role in tumorigenesis, cancer invasion

Zymographic Evaluation of Plasminogen Activators and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitors

2004
Publisher Summary The plasminogen activator/plasminogen activator inhibitor (PA/PAI) system is of considerable fundamental importance in elucidating the biochemical mechanisms of many physiological and patho-physiological processes. Although many techniques are available to assess the PA/PAI system, including ELISA and molecular assays, fibrin ...

Inhibitory effect of angiostatins on activity of the plasminogen/plasminogen activator system

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2009
Angiostatins, kringle-containing fragments of plasminogen, are potent inhibitors of angiogenesis. Effects of three angiostatin forms, K1-3, K1-4, and K1-4.5 (0-2 microM), on the rate of native Glu-plasminogen activation by its physiological activators in the absence or presence of soluble fibrin were investigated in vitro.

The potentiating effect of platelet on plasminogen activation by tissue plasminogen activator

Thrombosis Research, 1985
A new role for platelets in fibrinolysis is proposed. Platelets (euglobulin from platelet rich plasma and from human platelet extract) may potentiate plasminogen activation by tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). The potentiating activity was detected by both chromogenic substrate and fibrin plate analysis. The fibrinolysis-potentiating substance in the

Differences in the activation rates of plasminogen by tissue plasminogen activator and urokinase

Thrombosis Research, 1987
The activation of a native form of plasminogen (Glu-plg) by tissue plasminogen activator(t-PA) was enhanced when the plasma was clotted by the addition of thrombin or thrombin plus Ca++. Cross-linking of fibrin in the clotted plasma did not inhibit the fibrin-associated enhancement of the activation of plasminogen by t-PA.

Importance of the interaction between plasminogen and fibrin for plasminogen activation by tissue-type plasminogen activator

Thrombosis Research, 1984
The potentiating effect of fibrin monomer on plasminogen activation by tissue-type plasminogen activator is much more important with lys-plasminogen than with mini-plasminogen (which lacks the high affinity lysine-binding site important for binding to fibrin).
