Studies with plasminogen activators [PDF]

open access: yes, 1965
In the past decade, stimulated by the availability of fibrinolytic agents suitable for use in man in the treatment of thrombo-embolic vascular occlusion, there has been a great increase in interest in the components and functions of the fibrinolytic ...

Magnetic Micro‐ and Nanorobots for Precision Thrombolysis: Design Strategies and Translational Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Micro‐ and nanorobots for targeted thrombolysis. This perspective elaborates on the clinical indication of blood clot disorders and current limitations for treatment. As a novel, alternative solution, micro‐ and nanorobots can be used to treat and break down thrombi.

Leukocyte- and endothelial-derived microparticles: a circulating source for fibrinolysis

open access: yesHaematologica, 2012
Background We recently assigned a new fibrinolytic function to cell-derived microparticles in vitro. In this study we explored the relevance of this novel property of microparticles to the in vivo situation.Design and Methods Circulating microparticles ...

Staphylococcus aureus proteins Sbi and Efb recruit human plasmin to degrade complement C3 and C3b

open access: yes, 2012
Upon host infection, the human pathogenic microbe Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) immediately faces innate immune reactions such as the activated complement system. Here, a novel innate immune evasion strategy of S. aureus is described.

Plasminogen activators are involved in angiostatin generation in vivo in benign and malignant ovarian tumor cyst fluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Contains fulltext : 136532.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)In many tumor types, angiogenesis is the net result of pro- and anti-angiogenic mediators and correlated with metabolic activity, growth, and degree of malignancy.

SMAD4 Palmitoylation Drives a Metabolic‐Transcriptional Circuit to Promote Tumorigenesis and Confers Radiosensitivity in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies palmitoylation as a novel regulatory modification of SMAD4, mediated by ZDHHC22/APT2. It activates fatty acid synthesis, creating a self‐reinforcing SMAD4–FASN–palmitate feedback loop that drives pancreatic cancer growth and enhances radiotherapy sensitivity.

Streptolysin O accelerates the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin

open access: yesNature Communications
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) is a human-specific bacterial pathogen that can exploit the plasminogen-plasmin fibrinolysis system to dismantle blood clots and facilitate its spread and survival within the human host.

Activators and inhibitors of the plasminogen system in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yes, 2012
Accumulation and deposition of Aβ is one of the main neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and impaired Aβ degradation may be one mechanism of accumulation.

Integrated Single‐Cell and Spatial Analysis Reveals a Metabolic‐Immune Axis Driving Aortic Dissection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell and spatial profiling of 110 human thoracic aortic samples reveals a stromal–immune circuit driving aortic dissection. An elastin‐rich fibroblast subset is depleted with age and markedly reduced in disease, weakening aortic wall integrity.

Targeted Thrombolysis with Magnetic Nanotherapeutics: A Translational Assessment

open access: yesPharmaceutics
Plasminogen activators, such as recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activators (rtPAs), while effective in treating thromboembolic diseases, often induce hemorrhagic complications due to non-specific enzyme activities in the systemic circulation.
