Soluble urokinase activator receptor (suPAR) in stem cell mobilization.

چکیده

Selleri et al demonstrate that healthy donors given granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) have increases in plasma soluble plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) levels, which in turn induces chemotaxis of CD34 cells. Selleri et al's findings help better define the complicated mechanism of stem cell mobilization by G-CSF and point to a wide role for uPAR in cell surface adhesion and recognition.

Soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) in the emergency department: An update

Background: The biomarker soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is an indicator of inflammation which is increased in a variety of chronic and acute disease states. Its most promising application in the emergency setting is to aid in the prognostic stratification of patients by identifying those at high risk of deterioration. This is a narrative review of studies evaluating t...

Involvement of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor in hematopoietic stem cell mobilization.

We investigated the involvement of the urokinase-type plasminogen-activator receptor (uPAR) in granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-induced mobilization of CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from 16 healthy donors. Analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNCs) showed an increased uPAR expression after G-CSF treatment in CD33+ myeloid and CD14+ monocytic cells, whereas mobi...

Increased soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) serum levels after granulocyte colony-stimulating factor treatment do not predict successful progenitor cell mobilization in vivo.

Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mobilization is still not well understood. Accumulating evidence suggests that protease activation is an important step: proteases release cytokines or chemokines from the extracellular matrix, thereby modulating biological responses.1,2 The urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is the receptor for urokinasetype plasminogen activator (uPA). The ligan...

In vivo activity of the cleaved form of soluble urokinase receptor: a new hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell mobilizer.

Cleaved forms of soluble urokinase receptor (c-suPAR) have been detected in body fluids from patients affected by various tumors. We recently reported increased c-suPAR levels in sera of healthy donors during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-induced mobilization of CD34(+) hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). In vitro, c-suPAR or its derived chemotactic peptide (uPAR(84-95)) stimulated ...

Involvement of urokinase receptor in the cross-talk between human hematopoietic stem cells and bone marrow microenvironment

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) reside in bone marrow (BM) and can be induced to mobilize into the circulation for transplantation. Homing and lodgement into BM of transplanted HSCs are the first critical steps in their engraftment and involve multiple interactions between HSCs and the BM microenvironment.uPAR is a three domain receptor (DIDIIDIII) which binds urokinase, vitronectin, integrins....
