The study of the mechanisms of development and progression of fibrosis is one of the key directions of modern cardiology. Our work suggests that the urokinase receptor (uPAR) is involved in the regulation of mesothelial cell activity and epicardial ...

suPAR, a Circulating Kidney Disease Factor
Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is a multifaceted, GPI-anchored three-domain protein. Release of the receptor results in variable levels of soluble uPAR (suPAR) in the blood circulation.

KAT7‐acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G‐protein GαS enhances IL‐6 effect and drives HCC progenitor cell progression. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocarcinogenesis goes through HCC progenitor cells (HcPCs) to fully established HCC, and the mechanisms driving the development of HcPCs are still largely unknown.

Urokinase Regulates Vitronectin Binding by Controlling Urokinase Receptor Oligomerization [PDF]
Adhesion of monocytes to the extracellular matrix is mediated by a direct high affinity interaction between cell-surface urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) receptor (uPAR) and the extracellular matrix protein vitronectin. We demonstrate a tight connection between uPA-regulated uPAR oligomerization and high affinity binding to immobilized ...

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.

A Region in Domain II of the Urokinase Receptor Required for Urokinase Binding [PDF]
The urokinase receptor is composed of three homologous domains based on disulfide spacing. The contribution of each domain to the binding and activation of single chain urokinase (scuPA) remains poorly understood. In the present paper we examined the role of domain II (DII) in these processes.

Regulation of Urokinase/Urokinase Receptor Interaction by Heparin-like Glycosaminoglycans [PDF]
We show here that the interaction between the urokinase-type plasminogen activator and its receptor, which plays a critical role in cell invasion, is regulated by heparan sulfate present on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix. Heparan sulfate oligomers showing a composition close to the dimeric repeats of heparin (glucosamine-NSO(3)(6-OSO ...
