N-Alkylisatin-Loaded Liposomes Target the Urokinase Plasminogen Activator System in Breast Cancer [PDF]
Pharmaceutics, 2020 The urokinase plasminogen activator and its receptor (uPA/uPAR) are biomarkers for metastasis, especially in triple-negative breast cancer. We prepared anti-mitotic N-alkylisatin (N-AI)-loaded liposomes functionalized with the uPA/uPAR targeting ligand ...

Fibrinolysis regulation by platelets retaining plasminogen and tissue-type plasminogen activator on their surface [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2019 Platelets play a key role in hemostasis as cofactors of thrombin generation, fibrin polymerization centers, and initiators of clot retraction, while their ability to modulate clot dissolution remains less understood.

Origin and diversification of the plasminogen activation system among chordates
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Background The plasminogen (PLG) activation system is composed by a series of serine proteases, inhibitors and several binding proteins, which together control the temporal and spatial generation of the active serine protease plasmin. As this proteolytic
