Picornavirus receptor down-regulation by plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2.
Therapeutic interference with virus-cell surface receptor interactions represents a viable antiviral strategy. Here we demonstrate that cytoplasmic expression of the serine protease inhibitor (serpin), plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2), affords a high level of protection from lytic infection by multiple human picornaviruses. The antiviral action of PAI-2 was mediated primarily thro...
متن کاملCalcitriol-mediated modulation of urokinase-type plasminogen activator and plasminogen activator inhibitor-2.
Calcitriol-induced differentiation of U937 mononuclear phagocytes is known to have divergent effects on the synthesis of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI-2). In this study, we sought to determine whether calcitriol affects the expression of these proteins by modulating intermediate signal transduction involving intracellular calcium and prote...
متن کاملPlasminogen activator inhibitor type 2: a regulator of monocyte proliferation and differentiation.
We have explored the role of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) in THP-1 monocyte-like cells. These cells possess a mutation in the PAI-2 gene and do not produce an active PAI-2 protein. Transfection of THP-1 cells with plasmids expressing active PAI-2 reduced the cells' inherent adhesive properties and decreased the rate of cell proliferation. THP-1 cells expressing active PAI-2 al...
متن کاملSerum 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 کاملSuppression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 by RNA interference attenuates pulmonary fibrosis.
BACKGROUND AND AIM There is a growing body of evidence demonstrating that plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is involved in the progression of pulmonary fibrosis. In fact, PAI-1 knockout mice are protected from bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. This study was conducted to determine whether the intrapulmonary administration of small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting PAI-1 (PAI-1-siRNA...
