Alu-repeat polymorphism in the tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) gene, seminal t-PA concentration, and male fertility impairment: A case-control study [PDF]
Background: Tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) is a protein involved in the fibrinolytic system that catalyzes the conversion of plasminogen into the active plasmin. The activity of t-PA is controlled by plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.

Annexin A2-Mediated Plasminogen Activation in Endothelial Cells Contributes to the Proangiogenic Effect of Adenosine A2A Receptors [PDF]
Adenosine A2A receptor mediates the promotion of wound healing and revascularization of injured tissue, in healthy and animals with impaired wound healing, through a mechanism depending upon tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), a component of the ...

JNK suppression is essential for 17β-Estradiol inhibits prostaglandin E2-Induced uPA and MMP-9 expressions and cell migration in human LoVo colon cancer cells [PDF]
Background Epidemiological studies demonstrate that the incidence and mortality rates of colorectal cancer in women are lower than in men. However, it is unknown if 17β-estradiol treatment is sufficient to inhibit prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-induced cellular

Tissue plasminogen activator dose and pulmonary artery pressure reduction in catheter directed thrombolysis of submassive pulmonary embolism. [PDF]
PURPOSE:The purpose of this study is to assess the incremental effect of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) dose on pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and bleeding during catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) of submassive pulmonary embolism (PE). MATERIALS

SOME FIBRINOLYTIC PARAMETERS IN CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE PATIENTS: FOCUS ON UNSTABLE ANGINA SUBGROUPS
Background and aim. Unstable angina is classified into new-onset, progressive, and angina at rest. Though hemostasis plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease, including unstable angina, limited data exist regarding ...

Future Directions for Active Matter on Ordered Substrates [PDF]
Active matter is a term encompassing particle-based assemblies with some form of self-propulsion, including certain biological systems as well as synthetic systems such as artificial colloidal swimmers, all of which can exhibit a remarkable variety of new kinds of nonequilibrium phenomena.

Phosphorylation of human plasminogen activators and plasminogen [PDF]
Plasminogen (PG), urokinase‐type plasminogen activator (u‐PA) and tissue‐type PA (t‐PA) are the main molecules involved in fibrinolysis and in many other physiological and pathological processes. In the present study we report that human t‐PA, purified from human melanoma cells, and PG, purified from human plasma, both contain P‐Tyr residues, as ...
