Platelets retain high levels of active plasminogen activator inhibitor 1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The vascular fibrinolytic system is crucial for spontaneous lysis of blood clots. Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), the principal inhibitor of the key fibrinolytic enzyme tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA), is present in platelets at high ...

A Serpin With a Finger in Many PAIs: PAI-1's Central Function in Thromboinflammation and Cardiovascular Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) is a member of the serine protease inhibitor (serpin) superfamily. PAI-1 is the principal inhibitor of the plasminogen activators, tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA)

Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Protects Mice Against Cardiac Fibrosis by Inhibiting Urokinase-type Plasminogen Activator-mediated Plasminogen Activation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is known to protect mice against cardiac fibrosis. It has been speculated that PAI-1 may regulate cardiac fibrosis by inactivating urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and ultimately plasmin (Pm) generation.

Elevation of serum plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 predicts postoperative delirium independent of neural damage: a sequential analysis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Older adult surgical patients are susceptible to developing delirium. Early intervention can be initiated if a potential biomarker associated with delirium can be identified during the acute phase of surgery. Therefore, we investigated the changes in the

Association of Celiac Disease and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Polymorphism

open access: yesGenel Tıp Dergisi, 2022
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.

Components of the plasminogen activation system promote engraftment of porous polyethylene biomaterial via common and distinct effects. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Rapid fibrovascularization is a prerequisite for successful biomaterial engraftment. In addition to their well-known roles in fibrinolysis, urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) or their inhibitor plasminogen ...

Plasma Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor Levels in Angiographically Defined Coronary Artery Disease Among Saudis

open access: yesOman Medical Journal, 2013
Objectives: This study was aimed to determine plasma levels of total (TFPI-T) and free (TFPI-F) tissue factor pathway inhibitor, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) in a cohort of Saudi patients with chronic

SOME FIBRINOLYTIC PARAMETERS IN CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE PATIENTS: FOCUS ON UNSTABLE ANGINA SUBGROUPS

open access: yesСхідноукраїнський медичний журнал, 2021
Background and aim. Unstable angina is classified into new-onset, progressive, and angina at rest. Though hemostasis plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease, including unstable angina, limited data exist regarding ...
