Streptokinase-Induced Anaphylaxis
Streptokinase is a thrombolytic agent used most commonly for the dissolution of thrombi obstructing coronary arteries during acute myocardial infarction (MI). Anaphylactic reactions induced by streptokinase occur rarely.

Micro and Nanoparticles as Carriers for Streptokinase: A Mini-Review on Efficacy, Side Effects and Pharmacokinetics [PDF]
Streptokinase is being successfully used as a thrombolytic agent for restoring the blood flow following thromboembolism and myocardial infarction. However, high immunogenicity of the drug has limited its use in clinics.

Why do patients develop reactions to streptokinase?
SUMMARY Minor reactions to streptokinase are not uncommon, although the etiology is unknown. It is widely presumed, however, that these, like the more serious immune reactions, are antibody-mediated. We measured specific anti-streptokinase

Antiplatelet agents target the cyclooxygenase‐1 (COX‐1)/thromboxane A2 (TXA2) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)‐P2Y12 (cytochrome P450 2C19 [CYP2C19]‐metabolized) platelet activation pathways, resulting in either drug resistance or over‐inhibition. The individualized therapeutic window balances ischemic risk (triggered by high on‐treatment platelet ...

Effect of streptokinase in the prevention of intra-abdominal adhesions in the rat
The objective of the present study was to assess the action of streptokinase, a streptococcal derivative with fibrinolytic capacity, in the prevention of intraperitoneal adhesions in rats. Eighty animals were divided into four groups of 20 each; group A (

Pulmonary Embolism—A Century of Progress
Reviews a century of progress in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of pulmonary embolism; from the first successful surgical embolectomy in 1924 to advanced imaging, pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, and treatment. In the 21st century, advances include catheter‐directed thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy under decision‐making guidance of

Cloning and expression of truncated and intact streptokinase molecules in E.coli and evaluation of their biological activities [PDF]
Streptokinase is the most utilized drug for thrombolytic therapy. However, due to its nonhuman origin and nonspecific activity in the absence of fibrin, its application may encounter side effects such as allergic reactions and hemorrhage respectively. It
