Pro-urokinase-type Plasminogen Activator Is a Substrate for Hepsin [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
Hepsin, a type II transmembrane serine protease, is strongly up-regulated in prostate cancer. Hepsin overexpression in a mouse prostate cancer model resulted in tumor progression and metastasis, associated with basement membrane disorganization. We investigated whether hepsin enzymatic activity was linked to the basement membrane defects by examining ...

Near‐Infrared Fluorescent Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Biosensing

Small, EarlyView.
Near‐infrared fluorescent single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) stand out as versatile biosensors due to their spectral overlap with the biological transparency window, surface‐sensitive fluorescence emission, and chemical modularity. This review offers a concise guide to understanding the photophysics of SWCNTs, various functionalization strategies,

Recent advances in cardiovascular medicines : thrombolytics [PDF]

, 1990
Thrombolytic therapy represents a major advance in reducing mortality following myocardial infarction. Pharmacists must be aware of the principles and problems of thrombolysis and the extant large studies conducted in hospitals and in the community. This

Molecular mechanism of action of newer thrombolytic agents [PDF]

, 1987
Recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) and single chain urokinase-type plasminogen activator (scu-PA) are thrombolytic agents, characterized by a high but not absolute degree of fibrin specificity that is mediated through different ...

Erythrocyte-Inspired Discoidal Polymeric Nanoconstructs carrying Tissue Plasminogen Activator for the Enhanced Lysis of Blood Clots [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
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.

SerpinB2 regulates stromal remodelling and local invasion in pancreatic cancer [PDF]

, 2017
Pancreatic cancer has a devastating prognosis, with an overall 5-year survival rate of ~8%, restricted treatment options and characteristic molecular heterogeneity.

Numerical study of cancer cell invasion dynamics using adaptive mesh refinement: the urokinase model [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
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.

Kinetic Redox Shotgun Proteomics Reveals Specific Lipopolysaccharide Effects on Intestinal Epithelial Cells, Mitigated by a Mn Superoxide Dismutase Mimic

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 19, May 5, 2025.
Proteomics and redoxomics are efficient to quantify the effects of bacterial lipopolysaccharide in intestinal epithelial cells (HT29) at the proteome and at the Cys‐redoxome levels. Oxidative stress is the initial trigger of LPS leading to inflammation.

Functional Stability of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1

The Scientific World Journal, 2014
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is the main inhibitor of plasminogen activators, such as tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA), and a major regulator of the fibrinolytic system.

Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Promotes Paracellular Transmigration of Neutrophils Via Mac-1, But Independently of Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator Receptor [PDF]

Circulation, 2011
Background— Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. The underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear. Methods and Results— Using in vivo microscopy on the mouse cremaster muscle, I/R-elicited ...
