Cyclo19,31[D-Cys19]-uPA19-31 is a potent competitive antagonist of the interaction of urokinase-type plasminogen activator with its receptor (CD87) [PDF]

, 2001
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) represents a central molecule in pericellular proteolysis and is implicated in a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes such as tissue remodelling, wound healing, tumor invasion, and ...

Protease inhibitors prevent plasminogen-mediated, but not pemphigus vulgaris-induced, acantholysis in human epidermis [PDF]

, 2003
Pemphigus is an autoimmune blistering disease of the skin and mucous membranes. It is caused by autoantibodies directed against desmosomes, which are the principal adhesion structures between epidermal keratinocytes.

In silico docking of urokinase plasminogen activator and integrins [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2008
Abstract Background Urokinase, its receptor and the integrins are functionally associated and involved in regulation of cell signaling, migration, adhesion and proliferation. No structural information is available on this potential multimolecular complex.

Crystal structure and cellular functions of uPAR dimer

Nature Communications, 2022
The structural basis for urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) dimerization is not understood. Here, the authors solve the crystal structure of soluble uPAR dimers, identifying substantial structural changes compared to the monomer.

Elevated plasminogen activators are associated with hematoma progression in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage

Brain Hemorrhages, 2020
Endogenous fibrinolysis might lead to hematoma progression in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We studied plasma biomarkers of fibrinolysis and hemostasis in twenty-two patients with ICH and nine healthy controls (HC) in a single-center study.

The Diagnostic Value of Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor in Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Disease in Emergency Department

Düzce Tıp Fakültesi Dergisi, 2021
Aim: The urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) system consists of a protease, a receptor (urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor, uPAR), and inhibitors that can be expressed on various cell types.

Effect of hypoxia on the expression of CCN2, PLAU, PLAUR, SLURP1, PLAT and ITGB1 genes in ERN1 knockdown U87 glioma cells [PDF]

The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2014
The endoplasmic reticulum stress is an important factor of tumor growth and is induced in cancer cells. We have studied the effect of ERN1 knockdown as well as hypoxia on the expression of genes encoding­ factors, which control cell proliferation, in U87

Multimodal therapy for synergic inhibition of tumour cell invasion and tumour-induced angiogenesis [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) are highly invasive tumours with frequent local and distant recurrence. Metastasis formation requires degradation of the extracellular matrix, which is fulfilled by membrane-associated ...
