Functional Stability of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1
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.

immunocytochemical localization of urokinase-type plasminogen activator in lewis lung carcinoma
The invasively growing and metasizing Lewis lung carcinoma consistently contained urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) enzyme activity. When investigated immunocytochemically with antibodies against u-PA, different parts of individual tumors ...

Interdependence of kallikrein-related peptidases in proteolytic networks [PDF]
Human kallikrein-related peptidases (KLKs) are 15 homologous serine proteases involved in several (patho)physiological processes, including cancer. Secreted as precursors, they are activated upon proteolytic release of a short propeptide. We searched for

In mouse diet‐induced obesity models, the brain penetrant NLRP3 inhibitor NT‐0796 enhances and sustains the efficacy of the GLP‐1RA semaglutide, leading to a complete reversal of obesity. This correlates with reduced peripheral inflammation and anti‐neuroinflammatory activities, including a reduction in hypothalamic gliosis suggesting further benefits ...

Discovery of a novel conformational equilibrium in urokinase-type plasminogen activator
Although trypsin-like serine proteases have flexible surface-exposed loops and are known to adopt higher and lower activity conformations, structural determinants for the different conformations have remained largely obscure.

Near‐Infrared Fluorescent Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Biosensing
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,

Overexpression of the urokinase receptor splice variant uPAR-del4/5 in breast cancer cells affects cell adhesion and invasion in a dose-dependent manner and modulates transcription of tumor-associated genes [PDF]
mRNA levels of the urokinase receptor splice variant uPAR-del4/5 are associated with prognosis in breast cancer. Its overexpression in cancer cells affects tumor biologically relevant processes.

The murine urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor gene
The murine urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) gene has been isolated and its complete nucleotide sequence established. The gene is organized into seven exons comprising 9.5% of the 13,207-base pair region that spans the interval between the transcription initiation and polyadenylation sites.
