Biochemical properties of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1
PAI-1 is a Mr ~50,000 glycoprotein, which is the primary physiological inhibitor of the two plasminogen activators uPA and tPA. PAI-1 belongs to the serpin protein family. Studies of PAI-1 have contributed significantly to the elucidation of the protease inhibitory mechanism of serpins, which is based on a metastable native state becoming stabilised by

Tissue Plasminogen Activator, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1, and Tissue Plasminogen Activator/Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Complex as Risk Factors for the Development of a First Stroke [PDF]
Background and Purpose —Abnormalities in the fibrinolytic system have been associated with an increased risk for stroke in a few studies. This study was designed to test whether plasma levels of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and tPA/PAI-1 complex could predict a first-ever stroke.

This study identifies palmitoylation as a novel regulatory modification of SMAD4, mediated by ZDHHC22/APT2. It activates fatty acid synthesis, creating a self‐reinforcing SMAD4–FASN–palmitate feedback loop that drives pancreatic cancer growth and enhances radiotherapy sensitivity.

The plasmin-antiplasmin system: structural and functional aspects [PDF]
The plasmin-antiplasmin system plays a key role in blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. Plasmin and α2-antiplasmin are primarily responsible for a controlled and regulated dissolution of the fibrin polymers into soluble fragments. However, besides plasmin(

Salt-inducible kinases (SIKs) regulate TGFβ-mediated transcriptional and apoptotic responses [PDF]
The signalling pathways initiated by members of the transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) family of cytokines control many metazoan cellular processes, including proliferation and differentiation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and apoptosis. TGFβ

Association of Celiac Disease and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Polymorphism
Objective: Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disease. Although susceptibility to thrombosis in celiac patients has been reported in case studies, the cause is not yet known. PAI-1 inhibits fibrinolysis.
