Determinants of plasma levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 : A study of normotensive twins.
We investigated whether plasma levels of the plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 antigen (PAI-1:Ag) are genetically determined in monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twins. Twenty-five pairs of healthy twins underwent measurements of PAI-1:Ag and other variables, including body mass index, mean blood pressure, plasma renin activity, insulin, and glucose. To ascertain the zygosity of twins, h...
متن کاملThe Effects of Regular Aerobic Exercise on the serum levels of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 and Adiponectin in Obese Girls
Background: The modification of the adipokine levels can be important for the long-term prevention of systemic inflammation related to obesity in children. Objective: The current study aimed to investigate the effects of regular aerobic exercise on the serum levels of plasminogen Activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1) and Adiponectin in obese girls. Methods: This semi experimental research, 14 obese gi...
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 کاملPlatelets Retain High Levels of Active Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 1
The vascular fibrinolytic system is crucial for spontaneous lysis of blood clots. Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), the principal inhibitor of the key fibrinolytic enzyme tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA), is present in platelets at high concentrations. However, the majority of PAI-1 stored in platelets has been considered to be inactive. Our recent finding (Brogren H, et al. Blo...
متن کاملThe effects of residual platelets in plasma on plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1-related assays
Due to controversial evidence in the literature pertaining to the activity of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in platelets, we examined the effects of residual platelets present in plasma (a potential pre-analytical variable) on various plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1-related assays. Blood samples were collected from 151 individuals and centrifuged at 3...
