Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) in breast cancer - correlation with traditional prognostic factors
BACKGROUND Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) play a key role in tumour invasion and metastasis. High levels of both proteolytic enzymes are associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between traditional prognostic factors and uPA and PAI-1 expression in primary tumour ...
متن کاملRole of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) for prognosis in endometrial cancer.
BACKGROUND Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) contribute to the invasiveness of many carcinomas. Here, we studied a possible association between cytosolic uPA and PA-1 concentrations in tumor tissue with prognosis in patients with endometrial cancer. METHODS Cytosolic concentrations of uPA and PAI-1 were determined in 69 primary endot...
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 کاملUrokinase and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 in pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
The urokinase pathway of plasminogen activation is involved in proteolytic degradation of various tissues, including dissolution of the extracellular matrix and basement membranes during the process of cancer cell invasion. We have studied the prognostic value of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and type-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) in tumor extracts from 106 patients wit...
