Development of Inhibitors of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1
2011Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) belongs to the serine protease inhibitor super family (serpin) and is the primary inhibitor of both the tissue-type (tPA) and urokinase-type (uPA) plasminogen activators. PAI-1 has been implicated in a wide range of pathological processes where it may play a direct role in a variety of diseases.

Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 1 and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 2 in Various Disease States
Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1988SummaryThe association of increased PA-inhibitor (PAI) activity and of PAI-1 and PAI-2 antigen levels with different pathological conditions was studied in a collective of over 300 patients. PAI-1 and PAI-2 levels were measured by specific radioimmunoassays.

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and the kidney
American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2002Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is a serine protease inhibitor that was isolated 20 years ago. First recognized as an inhibitor of intravascular fibrinolysis, it is now evident that PAI-1 is a multifunctional protein with actions that may be dependent on or independent of its protease inhibitory effects.

Neutralization by Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 of Mutants of Tissue Plasminogen Activator
Enzyme, 2017Deletion mutants of human tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. These cells had been transfected with genes that encoded tPA but included restriction sites that allowed the deletion of DNA encoding specific structural domains of the tPA molecule’s heavy chain.

Tissue Plasminogen Activator and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 in Stroke Patients
Stroke, 1996Background and Purpose Abnormal endogenous fibrinolytic activity may be a risk factor for stroke. Since the possible variation of tissue-type plasminogen activator (TPA) antigen and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) antigen concentrations over time after stroke has been rarely studied, it was examined in plasma from ...

Reversible interactions between plasminogen activators and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology, 1992We have shown that the urokinase (UK) kringle domain contains a high-affinity plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) binding site, responsible for the 10-fold faster complex formation between UK and PAI-1 than between PAI-1 and low-molecular-weight urokinase (LMWUK).

Plasminogen Activators and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 1 in Urinary Tract Cancer
Urologia Internationalis, 2010The plasminogen activation system is considered to play an important role in cancer growth and metastasis. Both plasminogen activators (PAs) and their fast-acting inhibitors are produced in tumor cells and their surrounding tissues. In order to clarify the influence of the existence of malignant tumor in urinary tract on the systemic fibrinolytic ...

Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 deficiency
Haemophilia, 2008Summary. Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI‐1) is an important component of the coagulation system that down‐regulates fibrinolysis in the circulation. Reduced PAI‐1 levels may result in increased fibrinolysis and an associated bleeding diathesis. Clear documentation of PAI‐1 deficiency as a cause of a

Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1
2008Fibrinolysis, the dissolution of fibrin clots, is an integral component of the hemostatic system that involves the concerted action of a complex system of zymogens, activators, and inhibitors [1]. Plasmin, the primary protease of the fibrinolysic system, digests fibrin, thereby converting insoluble clot to soluble fibrin degradation products.

Plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 and diabetic nephropathy
Nephrology, 2005SUMMARY: Diabetic nephropathy is characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the kidney. Decreased ECM degradation as well as increased ECM synthesis plays an important role in ECM remodeling that favours tissue fibrosis. Plasminogen activator (PA)/plasmin/PA inhibitor (PAI) system is involved in ECM degradation and PAI‐1 ...
