Streptokinase and Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
The results of several multicenter studies on the treatment of acute myocardial infarction with streptokinase are now in. Although the results are variable and, when all of the trials are considered, the impact on overall mortality is rather small, the report appearing in today's Journal suggests that a subgroup of "medium-risk" patients benefit from ...

PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATION BY LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT STREPTOKINASE AND FIBRIN EFFECT [PDF]
The purpose is to study the plasminogen-activating activity of 36 kDa-streptokinase fragment, influences of desAB-fibrin on this process and low molecular weight streptokinase on plasmin catalytic properties as well. The 36 kDa-fragment lacking the 63

Interaction of Streptokinase and Plasminogen [PDF]
The interaction of streptokinase (SK) with human plasminogen (HPlg) was investigated using truncated SK peptides prepared by gene cloning techniques. SK(16-414) and SK(16-378) could activate HPlg as efficiently as the authentic SK. SK(60-414), which had been preincubated with SK(1-59), could also activate HPlg. SK(91-414), SK(127-414), and SK(158-414),

Streptokinase and facial haematoma [PDF]
Abstract We report two cases of facial haematoma following streptokinase therapy. This is an important complication as it can have fatal consequences. Early recognition and close monitoring are essential as emergency intervention may be required.
