Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) is not essential for epithelial sodium channel (ENaC)-mediated sodium retention in experimental nephrotic syndrome.

open access: yes, 2019
Aim In nephrotic syndrome, aberrantly filtered plasminogen (plg) is converted to active plasmin by tubular urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and thought to lead to sodium retention by proteolytic activation of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC)

Dietary Polyphenols as Regulators of Protein Deposition and Muscle Health: Mechanisms, Interactions, and Functional Applications

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
Dietary polyphenols contribute to the regulation of protein deposition and muscle health through multiple interconnected mechanisms. They promote protein synthesis and myogenic differentiation mainly by modulating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and myogenic regulatory factors, while suppressing excessive protein degradation through regulation of ...

uPA and uPA-receptor are involved in cancer-associated myeloid-derived suppressor cell accumulation

open access: yes, 2012
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) have been shown to play a critical role in tumor-induced immunosuppression, in many mouse and human cancers. The aim of this study was to show that MDSC accumulation is tumor burden-dependent, and to investigate ...

Effect of TNF-α on uPA and uPA receptor expressionin human gingival fibroblasts

open access: yesInternational Journal of Oral-Medical Sciences, 2003
Tumor necrotizing factor-alpha (TNF-α) is thought to be an important inflammatory cytokine in the progression of periodontitis. Plasminogen activator (PA) /plasmin cascade plays an important role in the inflammatory process through the activation of metalloprotease.

Early‐life adverse events and risk of inflammatory bowel disease: A Scandinavian birth cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Volume 83, Issue 5, Page 799-809, November 2026.
Abstract Objectives The experience of childhood stressful or adverse life events is believed to imprint on immunological pathways and, therefore, might have lasting effects on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) development. This study aimed to examine the association between experiences of early‐life adverse events and later IBD risk. Methods We followed

A Cross Talk between Neuronal Urokinase-type Plasminogen Activator (uPA) and Astrocytic uPA Receptor (uPAR) Promotes Astrocytic Activation and Synaptic Recovery in the Ischemic Brain

open access: yes, 2017
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) is a serine proteinase that, upon binding to its receptor (uPAR), catalyzes the conversion of plasminogen into plasmin on the cell surface.
