Review: Therapeutic potential of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 inhibitors

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Cardiovascular Disease, 2010
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is the major physiological inhibitor of fibrinolysis and regulates cell migration and fibrosis. Preclinical studies using genetically altered mice and biological or small molecule inhibitors have elucidated a role for PAI-1 in the pathogenesis of thrombosis, vascular remodeling, renal injury, and initiation of

Tissue plasminogen activator and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in human choledochal bile

open access: yesYonsei Medical Journal, 2000
Fibrinolytic properties have been detected in animal and human gallbladder (GB) bile. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) has been reported in greater concentration in GB stone bile and may be a nucleating factor in the pathogenesis of GB stone formation. It is unknown whether or not human choledochal bile has similar properties, which could have
