Human tissue-type plasminogen activator
Summary Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA ) plays an important role in the removal of intravascular fibrin deposits and has several physiological roles and pathological activities in the brain.

The Neurotoxicity of Tissue Plasminogen Activator? [PDF]
Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), a fibrin specific activator for the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin, stimulates thrombolysis and rescues ischemic brain by restoring blood flow. However, emerging data suggests that under some conditions, both tPA and plasmin, which are broad spectrum protease enzymes, are potentially neurotoxic if they reach ...

Peripheral embolization following thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic stroke—a case report
Background Intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator is the only golden approved medical therapy for acute ischemic stroke, guidelines for its injection relay on reducing or preventing associated hemorrhage as a side effect, yet hemorrhage is ...

Tissue Plasminogen Activator [PDF]
Coronary thrombolysis has been proved to be beneficial in the treatment of myocardial infarction. Much attention has been focused on tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) as a fibrinolytic agent. This article will discuss the unique properties of t-PA and the role of the critical care nurse in providing the safe delivery of t-PA.

Background: Patients with coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) are at high risk for thrombotic arterial and venous occlusions, while lung histopathology often reveals fibrin-based occlusion of small vessels in patients who succumb to the disease.

Schematic diagram showing RHAU can bind and unwind the G4 “knots” to modulate embryonic development and post‐natal organ function. Deficiency of RHAU gives rise to embryonic lethality, impaired organogenesis and organ dysfunction. RHAU modulates Nkx2‐5 mRNA and Yap1 mRNA at the post‐transcriptional level and facilitates the transcription of c‐Kit and ...

A shift in balance between profibrinolytic and antifibrinolytic factors causes enhanced fibrinolysis in cirrhosis [PDF]
The aim of this study was to assess the cause of enhanced fibrinolysis in cirrhosis by studying the balance between profibrinolytic and antifibrinolytic proteins in 24 patients with mild or severe cirrhosis. Antigen levels of both tissue-type plasminogen

Fibrinolysis regulation by platelets retaining plasminogen and tissue-type plasminogen activator on their surface [PDF]
Platelets play a key role in hemostasis as cofactors of thrombin generation, fibrin polymerization centers, and initiators of clot retraction, while their ability to modulate clot dissolution remains less understood.

Tissue plasminogen activator and urokinase plasminogen activator in human epileptogenic pathologies [PDF]
A growing body of evidence demonstrates the involvement of plasminogen activators (PAs) in a number of physiologic and pathologic events in the CNS. Induction of both tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) has been observed in different experimental models of epilepsy and tPA has been implicated in the mechanisms ...
