Treatment with a Urokinase Receptor-derived Cyclized Peptide Improves Experimental Colitis by Preventing Monocyte Recruitment and Macrophage Polarization [PDF]
Leukocyte migration across the blood barrier and into tissues represents a key process in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases. The urokinase receptor (urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor) is a master regulator of leukocyte ...

Augmented Urokinase Receptor Expression in Atheroma [PDF]
Abstract Smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration into neointima are hallmarks of atherogenesis. However, mechanisms responsible have not yet been fully elucidated. One potential mediator of both smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration is activation of plasminogen by activators bound to receptors on cells within ...

New Pieces in the Puzzle of uPAR Role in Cell Migration Mechanisms
The urokinase (uPA) receptor (uPAR) plays a key role in cell migration. We previously showed that uPAR-negative HEK-293 cells efficiently migrate toward serum but, after uPAR ectopic expression, migrate only in a uPAR-dependent manner. In fact, migration
