Human Tissue Plasminogen Activator [PDF]
Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) has long been considered the flagship product of the biotechnology industry. This protein is a popular treatment for heart attacks, coronary heart disease, and stroke.

Early increases in plasminogen activator activity following partial hepatectomy in humans [PDF]
Background Increases in urokinase-like plasminogen activator (uPA) activity are reported to be amongst the earliest events occurring in remnant liver following partial hepatectomy in rats, and have been proposed as a key component of the regenerative ...

Objectives Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) is contraindicated for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients taking direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) within 48 hours before index stroke. Limited data exist on off‐label use of IVT for these patients. We compared the safety and outcomes of IVT in AIS patients with DOAC treatment and patients with no OAC before

Erythrocyte-Inspired Discoidal Polymeric Nanoconstructs carrying Tissue Plasminogen Activator for the Enhanced Lysis of Blood Clots [PDF]
Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is the sole approved therapeutic molecule for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Yet, only a small percentage of patients could benefit from this life-saving treatment because of medical contraindications and severe side effects, including brain hemorrhage, associated with delayed administration.

Systemic effects of tissue plasminogen activator-associated fibrinolysis and its relation to thrombin generation in orthotopic liver transplantation [PDF]
Orthotopic liver transplantation is frequently associated with hyperfibrinolysis, the origin and clinical relevance of which is largely unknown. In 20 orthotopic liver transplantations, we studied the occurrence and systemic effects of hyperfibrinolysis.

Highlights Metformin activates GDF15 expression, which reduces appetite with induction of weight loss in both diabetic and non‐diabetic patients. GDF15 level is linked and correlated with the progression of diabetic complications including thrombosis, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic neuropathy, and diabetic retinopathy. Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus

Numerical study of cancer cell invasion dynamics using adaptive mesh refinement: the urokinase model [PDF]
In the present work we investigate the chemotactically and proteolytically driven tissue invasion by cancer cells. The model employed is a system of advection-reaction-diffusion equations that features the role of the serine protease urokinase-type plasminogen activator.

Abstract Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) from incomplete fossil fuel combustion (coal, oil, gas and diesel) has been linked to increased morbidity and mortality due to metabolic diseases. PM2.5 exaggerate adipose inflammation and insulin resistance in mice with diet‐induced obesity.

Theory of mechano-chemical patterning in biphasic biological tissues [PDF]
The formation of self-organized patterns is key to the morphogenesis of multicellular organisms, although a comprehensive theory of biological pattern formation is still lacking. Here, we propose a minimal model combining tissue mechanics to morphogen turnover and transport in order to explore new routes to patterning.

BACKGROUND Among physicians who treat patients with acute myocardial infarction, there is controversy about the magnitude of the clinical benefit of primary (i.e., immediate) coronary angioplasty as compared with thrombolytic therapy.
