Measuring the metastatic potential of cancer cells [PDF]
Cancer cells must secrete proteolytic enzymes to invade adjacent tissues and migrate to a new metastatic site. Urokinase (uPA) is a key enzyme related to metastasis in cancers of the lung, colon, gastric, uterine, breast, brain, and malignant melanoma. A

Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Levels and Polymorphisms
Abstract Objective.—To review the published evidence of a relationship between levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) or the 4G/5G polymorphism of the PAI-1 gene and the occurrence of venous thromboembolic disease. Methods.—Review of the medical literature using computerized databases and a review of secondary

Scheme of preparation of D‐dimers and evaluation of D‐dimer‐bound thrombin activity. Thrombin bound to fibrin participates in ongoing fibrinogen transformation and its inhibition is impeded. Our detection system may aid in identifying patients at risk of recurrent thrombotic events or complications, regardless of the origin of the acute health problem.
