Serum Level of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor Type-1 in Addicted Patients with Coronary Artery Disease
Background: Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is a glycoprotein with inhibitory effects on the formation of plasmin from plasminogen by plasminogen activator. Thus, it prevents clot lysis in vessel walls. Several evidences prove the relationship between coronary artery disease and response to fibrinolytic therapy in patients with myocardial infarction with PAI-1 level. Opium addiction i...
متن کاملBiochemical properties of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.
PAI-1 is a Mr ~50,000 glycoprotein, which is the primary physiological inhibitor of the two plasminogen activators uPA and tPA. PAI-1 belongs to the serpin protein family. Studies of PAI-1 have contributed significantly to the elucidation of the protease inhibitory mechanism of serpins, which is based on a metastable native state becoming stabilised by insertion of the RCL into the central beta...
متن کاملPlasminogen activator inhibitor-1: a novel therapeutic target for hypertension?
H ypertension is the most common reversible risk factor for stroke, myocardial infarction, and heart failure, affecting >60 million individuals in the United State alone and 1 billion globally. 1 According to the World Health Organization, hypertension is now the leading cause of preventable death worldwide. 2 Importantly, the prevalence and complications of hypertension increase significantly ...
متن کاملIntramural plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 and coronary atherosclerosis.
Altered expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 in vessel walls, reviewed here, might affect coronary atherogenesis. Upregulation might exacerbate vasculopathy by potentiating thrombosis and by inhibiting vascular smooth muscle cell migration, resulting in attenuation of thickness of elaborated fibrous caps implicated in the vulnerability of atheroma to rupture.
متن کاملPlasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Synthesis
High plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor-i (PAI-1) activity is associated with insulin resistance and is correlated with hyperinsulinemia. The cellular origin of plasma PAI-1 in insulin resistance is not known. The hepatoma cell line Hep G2 has been shown to synthesize PAI-1 in response to insulin. The aim of this study was to analyze the insulin-mediated response of PAI-1 and lipid synthesi...
