The concentrations of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) have been determined in endometrial curettings obtained from 46 subfertile women during proliferative, early or late secretory phases of the menstrual cycle. t-PA activity and antigen concentrations was significantly higher (P < 0.001) in late secretory endometrium than in proliferative or early secretory endometrium. Higher concentrations of PAI-1 antigen (P < 0.05) were also noted in late secretory phase than in proliferative and early secretory endometrium. However, u-PA concentration was not significantly different and no PAI activity could be demonstrated in the menstrual phases studied. Zymography studies confirmed the presence of both t-PA and u-PA in the endometrium. Ovarian hormonal patterns may therefore influence the activity of plasminogen activators especially of t-PA in the endometrium during various phases of the menstrual cycle. 相似文献

The main physiological function of plasmin is blood clot fibrinolysis and restoration of normal blood flow. To date, however, it became apparent that in addition to thrombolysis, the plasminogen/plasmin system plays an important physiological and pathological role in a number of other essential processes: degradation of the extracellular matrix, embryogenesis, cell migration, tissue remodeling, wound healing, angiogenesis, inflammation, and tumor cell migration. This review focuses on structural features of plasminogen, regulation of its activation by physiological plasminogen activators, inhibitors of plasmin, and plasminogen activators, and the role of plasminogen binding to fibrin, cellular receptors, and extracellular ligands in various functions performed by plasmin thus formed. 相似文献

A modern data review on the importance of fibrinolysis system is given. A considerable success has been scored during the study of molecular parameters of fibrinolysis system: the plasminogen, plasmin, its inhibitors, plasminogen activators and the mechanism of activation system have been characterized. The entrance of A, K, C, P and PP vitamins has been established to be necessary for the normal functioning of the fibrinolysis system; the dependence of the blood fibrinolytic activity upon the initial plasminogen content and concentration of its activators in blood has been revealed. The plasminogen activator depletion in tissues has been shown to be one of the reasons of some pathological states development, especially at cardiovascular diseases. The increase of fibrinolysis level by the active fibrinolytic ferment injection in blood has a medical effect at thrombosis. The ferment fibrinolysin received in the laboratory is successfully used in clinical practice. Some other activators of fibrinolytic system: tricholysine and longolytin from the culture of saprophyte fungi, plasminogen activator from the pig heart and the cells culture of the calf kidney have been received and are being studied. 相似文献

Plasminogen activators were studied in blood urine in 207 patients with nephrotic syndrome of different etiological forms. The blood plasminogen activator activity was decreased in chronic glomerulonephritis, SLE, systemic vasculities as result of great level of inhibitors (L2M), penetration of enzymes to abdominal and pleural transudates, excretion to urine. The blood plasminogen activator activity and urokinase level in chronic glomerulonephritis was dependent on the degree of nephrotic syndrome. The plasminogen activator in amyloidosis was sharply elevated because of permanent irritability of endothelial wall by amyloid mass. Venous occlusion caused the release of plasminogen activator to blood only in more favourable clinical course of nephrotic syndrome. 相似文献

Background
SERPINE2, also known as protease nexin-1, belongs to the serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN) superfamily. It is one of the potent SERPINs that modulates the activity of plasminogen activators (PAs). PAs and their SERPIN inhibitors, such as SERPINB2 and SERPINE1, were expressed in the human endometrium and were implicated in implantation. However, expression data about SERPINE2 in the human endometrium is still unknown. Thus, we conducted an investigation to reveal the spatiotemporal and cellular expression of SERPINE2 in the human uterus during the menstrual cycle. 相似文献6.

Tissue plasminogen activator is one of the two plasminogen activators, both serine proteases, that catalyze the conversion of inactive plasminogen to plasmin, which then degrades the fibrin network of blood clots. By combining somatic cell genetics, in situ hybridization, and Southern blot hybridization, we localized the human tissue plasminogen activator gene to the pericentromeric region of chromosome 8. 相似文献

Molecular mechanisms of fibrinolysis and their application to fibrin-specific thrombolytic therapy 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
D Collen 《Journal of cellular biochemistry》1987,33(2):77-86
The fibrinolytic system comprises a proenzyme, plasminogen, which can be converted to the active enzyme, plasmin, which degrades fibrin. Plasminogen activation is mediated by plasminogen activators, which are classified as either tissue-type plasminogen activators (t-PA) or urokinase-type plasminogen activators (u-PA). Inhibition of the fibrinolytic system may occur at the level of the activators or at the level of generated plasmin. Plasmin has a low substrate specificity, and when circulating freely in the blood it degrades several proteins including fibrinogen, factor V, and factor VIII. Plasma does, however, contain a fast-acting plasmin inhibitor, alpha 2-antiplasmin, which inhibits free plasmin extremely rapidly but which reacts much slower with plasmin bound to fibrin. A "systemic fibrinolytic state" may, however, occur by extensive activation of plasminogen and depletion of alpha 2-antiplasmin. Clot-specific thrombolysis therefore requires plasminogen activation restricted to the vicinity of the fibrin. Two physiological plasminogen activators, t-PA and single-chain u-PA (scu-PA) induce clot-specific thrombolysis, via entirely different mechanisms, however. t-PA is relatively inactive in the absence of fibrin, but fibrin strikingly enhances the activation rate of plasminogen by t-PA. This is explained by an increased affinity of fibrin-bound t-PA for plasminogen and not by alteration of the catalytic rate constant of the enzyme. The high affinity of t-PA for plasminogen in the presence of fibrin thus allows efficient activation on the fibrin clot, while no significant plasminogen activation by t-PA occurs in plasma. scu-PA has a high affinity for plasminogen (Km = 0.3 microM) but a low catalytic rate constant (kcat = 0.02 sec-1). However, scu-PA does not activate plasminogen in plasma in the absence of a fibrin clot, owing to the presence of (a) competitive inhibitor(s). Fibrin-specific thrombolysis appears to be due to the fact that fibrin reverses the competitive inhibition. The thrombolytic efficacy and fibrin specificity of natural and recombinant t-PA has been demonstrated in animal models of pulmonary embolism, venous thrombosis, and coronary artery thrombosis. In all these studies intravenous infusion of t-PA at sufficiently high rates caused efficient thrombolysis in the absence of systemic fibrinolytic activation. The efficacy and relative fibrinogen-sparing effect of t-PA was recently confirmed in three multicenter clinical trials in patients with acute myocardial infarction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Although the roles of plasminogen and plasmin in mediating blood clot dissolution are well known, the availability of mice deficient for components of the fibrinolytic system has allowed direct approaches to be made toward elucidating the role of these proteins in other diverse physiological and pathophysiological processes. A number of these studies have identified plasminogen as playing an important role in inflammation and other cell migratory processes. With the identification of receptors for plasminogen on a number of pathogens, and the ability to activate plasminogen through either endogenous production of plasminogen activators or utilization of host activators, mice deficient for components of the fibrinolytic system offer a unique approach toward further elucidating the importance of this system in pathogen infection and dissemination. 相似文献

Despite their widespread use in patients with acute myocardial infarction, all currently available thrombolytic agents suffer from a number of significant limitations, including resistance to reperfusion, the occurrence of acute coronary reocclusion and bleeding complications. Furthermore, the therapeutic use of plasminogen activators as thrombolytic agents requires intravenous infusion of relatively large amounts of material. Therefore, the quest for thrombolytic agents with a higher thrombolytic potency, specific thrombolytic activity and/or a better fibrin-selectivity continues. Several lines of research towards improvement of thrombolytic agents are being explored, including the construction of mutants and variants of plasminogen activators, chimeric plasminogen activators, conjugates of plasminogen activators with monoclonal antibodies, or plasminogen activators from animal or bacterial origin. 相似文献

Plasminogen activators are a group of enzymes which play a crucial role in the breakdown of blood clots. The plasminogen activators currently used in medicine to remove clots from veins and arteries suffer from several disadvantages, but new cell culture techniques or cloned genes could make available safer and cheaper enzymes. 相似文献

Changes in the fibrinolytic activity of blood flowing from the skeletal muscles during electrostimulation of the peripheral end of the cut-off sympathetic chain at the blockade of alpha-adrenoceptors have been studied in the acute experiments on cats. It is stated, that this action induces not only an increase of vascular conductivity but also fibrinolysis stimulation relating to the secretion of plasminogen activators to the blood. The effect of fibrinolysis stimulation was reproduced during intraarterial infusion of acetylcholine and was blocked by atropine. The vasodilating reactions on sodium nitroprusside and papaverine similar by intensity to the cholinergic reactions induce no plasminogen activator release. The existence of the specific regulation mechanism of plasminogen activator secretion, mediated by M-cholinoceptors is suggested. 相似文献

Species differences in the detection of high molecular weight urinary plasminogen activators 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Urine samples from 10 species of mammals were analyzed by SDS-PAGE followed by zymography for the presence of both plasminogen activators and plasminogen activator binding proteins. In contrast to results obtained with urine from humans (Homo sapiens), and to a lesser extent urine from baboons (Papio cynocephalous), urine from gorillas (Gorilla gorilla) and orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus) did not exhibit either very high molecular weight plasminogen activators or the presence of plasminogen activator binding proteins. Low levels of very high molecular weight plasminogen activators could be detected in concentrates of urine samples from rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus), dogs (Canis familiaris) and sheep (Ovis aries). Very high molecular weight plasminogen activators could be detected in unconcentrated guinea-pig (Cavia porcella) urine, concentrated urine samples from rats (Rattus norvegicus), but not in concentrated samples of urine from mice (Mus musculus). These results indicate that considerable variation between species exists at the level of the plasminogen activators present in urine, a finding that may relate to whether plasminogen activator binding proteins are also present in this fluid. 相似文献

The fibrinolytic properties of blood and erythrocytes were studied before and after physical exercise in male volunteers.
Their fibrinolytic responses were of two distinct types. In type 1 response, fibrinolytic activities of blood and erythrocytes
increased; the plasminogen activator and active plasmin contents in erythrocytes also increased, whereas the profibrinolysin
content correspondingly decreased. In addition, physical exercise increased the erythrocyte adsorption properties for plasma
activators of fibrinolysis. Type 2 response was characterized by a decrease in the fibrinolytic activity of blood; neither
fibrinolytic activity nor adsorption properties of erythrocytes increased. The type of blood and erythrocyte response to muscular
activity was determined by the pre-exercise level of red blood cell fibrinolytic activity. It was low in type 1 response due
to a lesser content of plasmin activators and greater content of antiplasmin. In type 2 response, the initially high lytic
capacity is connected with a greater reserve of activators and lesser reserve of inhibitors of the fibrinolytic system. A
conclusion was made that individual differences in fibrinolytic responses to physical exercise were largely accounted for
by the properties of erythrocytes. 相似文献

Novel properties of human monocyte plasminogen activator 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Human peripheral monocytes stimulated by either muramyl dipeptide [N-acetyl-muramoyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine], bacterial lipopolysaccharide or lymphokine-containing supernatants of human lymphocytes, could be shown to produce and secrete appreciable activities of a 52 000-Mr plasminogen activator. This enzyme was suppressed in control and stimulated cultures by dexamethasone (0.1 microM). Monocyte plasminogen activator could only be assayed under conditions of low ionic strength and had no detectable activity at 0.15 M NaCl. Intracellular enzyme was present as a proenzyme, requiring activation by preincubation with plasminogen containing traces of plasmin, before its activity could be seen on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis by a fibrin overlay method. Secreted enzyme was in the active form. Further incubation of lysate or supernatant plasminogen activator with plasminogen did not produce any active enzyme species of Mr 36 000, unlike incubations of urokinase with plasminogen. Moreover, comparisons with other plasminogen activators of Mr 52 000 from transformed cell lines showed that the monocyte activator was unique in its resistance to monocyte minactivin, a specific inactivator of urokinase-type plasminogen activators, and in its sensitivity to human alpha 2-macroglobulin. It was therefore concluded that human monocyte plasminogen activator, although sharing an Mr of 52 000 in common with other such activators, is not identical to the high Mr form of urokinase or the plasminogen activators of transformed cells. On present evidence it is the least likely of these enzymes to be active extracellularly under normal physiological conditions. 相似文献

Invasive bacterial pathogens intervene at various stages and by various mechanisms with the mammalian plasminogen/plasmin system. A vast number of pathogens express plasmin(ogen) receptors that immobilize plasmin(ogen) on the bacterial surface, an event that enhances activation of plasminogen by mammalian plasminogen activators. Bacteria also influence secretion of plasminogen activators and their inhibitors from mammalian cells. The prokaryotic plasminogen activators streptokinase and staphylokinase form a complex with plasmin(ogen) and thus enhance plasminogen activation. The Pla surface protease of Yersinia pestis resembles mammalian activators in function and converts plasminogen to plasmin by limited proteolysis. In essence, plasminogen receptors and activators turn bacteria into proteolytic organisms using a host-derived system. In Gram-negative bacteria, the filamentous surface appendages fimbriae and flagella form a major group of plasminogen receptors. In Gram-positive bacteria, surface-bound enzyme molecules as well as M-protein-related structures have been identified as plasminogen receptors, the former receptor type also occurs on mammalian cells. Plasmin is a broad-spectrum serine protease that degrades fibrin and noncollagenous proteins of extracellular matrices and activates latent procollagenases. Consequently, plasmin generated on or activated by Haemophilus influenzae, Salmonella typhimurium, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Y. pestis, and Borrelia burgdorferi has been shown to degrade mammalian extracellular matrices. In a few instances plasminogen activation has been shown to enhance bacterial metastasis in vitro through reconstituted basement membrane or epithelial cell monolayers. In vivo evidence for a role of plasminogen activation in pathogenesis is limited to Y. pestis, Borrelia, and group A streptococci. Bacterial proteases may also directly activate latent procollagenases or inactivate protease inhibitors of human plasma, and thus contribute to tissue damage and bacterial spread across tissue barriers. 相似文献

Plasminogen activators are the proteases which convert plasminogen into plasmin dissolving, in its turn, the major component of blood clots, fibrin. They are extremely useful in heart attack therapy. Modern and most appropriate way of scaled up production of these valuable proteins is gene engineering. In this case, a separation and a purification of target product become the important steps of the whole process. Recently developed affinity chromatography on short monolithic columns seems to be a very attractive method for these purposes. High speed of a process prevents the protein's denaturation due to temperature or/and solvents influence. The better mass transfer mechanism (convection rather than diffusion) allows considering only biospecific complexing as time limiting step. Specificity of several synthetic peptides to plasminogen activators have been studied by affinity chromatography on short monolithic columns. Peptide ligands were synthesized by conventional solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The immobilization procedure was carried out as a one step process at static conditions. The results of quantitative evaluation of such affinity interactions were compared with those established for plasminogen that is the natural affinity counterpart to both proteases. Additionally, some of investigated peptides were synthesized directly on GMA-EDMA disks and their affinity properties were compared with those established for the case of immobilized ligands. The possibility of using of synthetic peptidyl ligands for plasminogen activators isolation from native cell supernatant and model protein mixtures has been demonstrated. 相似文献

Clone B559 mouse melanoma cells are highly tumorigenic and produce plasminogen activator. Cells of clone C3471, a line obtained by continued growth of B559 cells in medium containing 5-bromodeoxyuridine (1 microgram/ml), have no plasminogen activator and are non-tumorigenic. When B559 cells are co-cultivated with C3471 cells, the ability of B559 cells to activate plasminogen is suppressed. Under these conditions cell fusion occurs. Lack of expression of plasminogen activators is not a consequence of cell fusion, inhibition of cell division or release of soluble inhibitors of either plasminogen activators or plasmin. No inhibitors of plasminogen activators could be demonstrated in association with sub cellular fractions of C3471 cells or with the C-type viral particles released from C3471 cells. Close contact between cells of the two lines is shown to be essential for suppression of plasminogen activation. 相似文献

The fibrinolytic activity of human peripheral blood leukocytes was studied by plating the cells on 125I-fibrin coated dishes. The separation of the three major leukocyte types allowed to demonstrate that most of the activity was produced by granulocytes. The rate of fibrinolysin was found to be linear with incubation time and cell number in the range of 1-4 X 10(5) cells/ml. Since little activity was found in absence of exogenous plasminogen, it was concluded that the cell fibrinolytic activity depended mostly upon the release of plasminogen activator. Plasmatic and granulocytic activators obtained from the same amount of blood were found to be of similar level suggesting a possible clinical implication of the cellular activity in the thrombolytic system. 相似文献

We have undertaken a structural and functional analysis of recombinant plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) produced in Escherichia coli using site-directed mutagenesis and immunochemistry. Expression of recombinant PAI-1 yielded an inhibitor that was functionally indistinguishable from PAI-1 made in human endothelial cells. Mutations in both the reactive center P1 and P1' residues (Arg-Met) and a putative secondary binding site for plasminogen activators on PAI-1 have been engineered to assess their functional effects. The inhibition of a panel of serine proteases, including plasminogen activators, trypsin, elastase, and thrombin, has been studied. Substitution of the P1 arginine residue with lysine or the P1' residue with either valine or serine had no detectable effect on the rate of inhibition of plasminogen activators. However, replacement of both P1 and P1' by Met-Ser produced a variant with no detectable plasminogen activator inhibitor activity. Mutations introduced into either Asp102 or Lys104 in the second site did not affect the rate of inhibition of plasminogen activators. Complementary immunochemical experiments using antibodies directed against the same two regions of the PAI-1 protein confirm that the reactive center is the primary determinant of inhibitory activity and that the putative second site is not a necessary functional region. 相似文献
