Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Promotes the Recruitment and Polarization of Macrophages in Cancer
Summary: Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) has a pro-tumorigenic function via its pro-angiogenic and anti-apoptotic activities. Here, we demonstrate that PAI-1 promotes the recruitment and M2 polarization of monocytes/macrophages through ...

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

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in cancer research
[Despite as a major inhibitor of urokinase (uPA), paradoxically,] Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) has been validated to be highly expressed in various types of tumor biopsy tissues or plasma compared with controls based on huge clinical data bases analysis, more importantly, PAI-1 alone or in conjunction with uPA have been identified as ...

Pleiotropic functions of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 [PDF]
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), a 45-kDa serine proteinase inhibitor with reactive site peptide bond Arg345-Met346, is the main physiological plasminogen activator inhibitor. It occurs in human plasma at an antigen concentration of about 20 ng mL(-1).
