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.

Urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor in IgA nephropathy
See Article on Page 176-182 IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common pathologic form of primary glomerulonephritis and accounts for up to 50% of cases of this condition diagnosed using renal biopsy in Korea [1]. The most common pathologic findings related to the development of end-stage renal disease were global sclerosis, segmental sclerosis ...

Evaluation of alpha 1-antitrypsin and the levels of mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase 7, urokinase type plasminogen activator receptor and COX-2 for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of death from cancer in both men and women in the majority of developed countries. Molecular tests of blood could potentially provide this ideal screening tool. AIM: Our objective was to

The receptor for urokinase‐type plasminogen activator is expressed during mouse spermatogenesis [PDF]
Urokinase‐type plasminogen activator (uPA) binds to a plasma membrane receptor (uPAR) that localizes plasmin generation to the cell environment. Mouse spermatozoa have surface‐bound uPA, which appears to be acquired from genital tract secretions at ejaculation.

Origin and diversification of the plasminogen activation system among chordates
Background The plasminogen (PLG) activation system is composed by a series of serine proteases, inhibitors and several binding proteins, which together control the temporal and spatial generation of the active serine protease plasmin. As this proteolytic

Novel bi- and trifunctional inhibitors of tumor-associated proteolytic systems [PDF]
Serine proteases, cysteine proteases, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Recently, a recombinant bifunctional inhibitor (chCysuPA(19-31)) directed against cysteine proteases and the urokinasetype ...
