Involvement of the plasminogen activator/plasmin proteolytic cascade in fertilization
, 1993 At the time of fertilization both murine gametes express plasminogen-dependent proteolytic activity: unfertilized eggs secrete tissue-type plasminogen activator and ejaculated spermatozoa have urokinase-type plasminogen activator bound to their surface ...

Interleukin‐12: Central Roles in Immune Regulation and Disease Therapy
Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.IL‐12 levels are tightly regulated to balance effective protective immunity against infections and cancer with the risk of excessive inflammation and autoimmune disease. Both insufficient and excessive IL‐12 activity can therefore be detrimental, highlighting the importance of precisely controlling its production and signaling. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐12 (

Streptolysin O accelerates the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin
Nature CommunicationsGroup 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.

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes
