Regulation of cell signalling by uPAR

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2010
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) expression is elevated during inflammation and tissue remodelling and in many human cancers, in which it frequently indicates poor prognosis. uPAR regulates proteolysis by binding the extracellular protease urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA; also known as urokinase) and also activates many ...

Development of inhibitors for uPAR: blocking the interaction of uPAR with its partners

Drug Discovery Today, 2021
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) mediates a multitude of biological activities, has key roles in several clinical indications, including malignancies and inflammation, and, thus, has attracted intensive research over the past few decades.

uPAR: a versatile signalling orchestrator

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2002
The plasminogen system has been implicated in clot lysis, wound healing, tissue regeneration, cancer and many other processes that affect health and disease. The urokinase receptor uPAR was originally thought to assist the directional invasion of migrating cells, but it is now becoming increasingly evident that this proteinase receptor elicits a ...

Targeting uPA/uPAR in prostate cancer

Cancer Treatment Reviews, 2007
Prostate cancer (CaP) is one of the most common malignancies in men, with an increasing incidence. Despite significant advances in surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy to treat CaP, many patients unfortunately succumb to secondary disease (metastases).
