We have observed marked interindividual differences in release rates of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) among healthy subjects. The objective of the current study was to test the hypothesis that there is an association between a genetic variation at the t-PA locus and the in vivo release rate of t-PA. Fifty-one healthy males were studied at rest in the morning and 27 of these were also...

the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of six-week high intensity interval training (hiit) on fibrinolytic factors (t-pa, pai-1 & t-pa/pai-1) in sedentary young men. eighteen inactive young men voluntarily took part in this study and were randomly divided into two groups including the experiment group (n: 9, age: 24.33 ± 1.41, height: 176.22 ± 4.91 and weight: 72.27 ± 6.59) and c...

Sympathetic neurons synthesize, transport, and release tissue-type plasminogen activators (t-PAs) and urinary-type plasminogen activators (u-PAs). We reported that t-PA enhances sympathetic neurotransmission and exacerbates reperfusion arrhythmias. We have now assessed the role of u-PA and plasminogen. Neurogenic contractile responses to electrical field stimulation (EFS) were determined in vas...

objective: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous and catheter directed thrombolysis by recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (alteplase) in the patients with non-traumatic acute limb ischemia (ali). methods: this was a randomized clinical trial being performed between 2009 and 2011 in mashhad university of medical sciences. we included those patients who were<75 years, with symp...

The following mutants of human tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) were constructed by deletion mutagenesis of t-PA cDNA, expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells and purified to homogeneity: (a) t-PA-delta FE:t-PA lacking both the fibronectin fingerlike (F) domain and the epidermal growth factor (E) domain, (b) t-PA-delta FE1X:t-PA-delta FE with the glycosylated 117Asn mutagenized to Gln,...
