PHAGOCYTES, GRANULOCYTES, AND MYELOPOIESIS Regulation of macrophage migration by a novel plasminogen receptor Plg-RKT
Localization of plasmin on macrophages and activation of pro–MMP-9 play key roles in macrophage recruitment in the inflammatory response. These functions are promoted by plasminogen receptors exposing C-terminal basic residues on the macrophage surface. Recently, we identified a novel transmembrane plasminogen receptor, Plg-RKT, which exposes a C-terminal lysine on the cell surface. In the pres...
متن کاملThe novel plasminogen receptor, plasminogen receptor(KT) (Plg-R(KT)), regulates catecholamine release.
Neurotransmitter release by catecholaminergic cells is negatively regulated by prohormone cleavage products formed from plasmin-mediated proteolysis. Here, we investigated the expression and subcellular localization of Plg-R(KT), a novel plasminogen receptor, and its role in catecholaminergic cell plasminogen activation and regulation of catecholamine release. Prominent staining with anti-Plg-R...
متن کاملProteomics-based discovery of a novel, structurally unique, and developmentally regulated plasminogen receptor, Plg-RKT, a major regulator of cell surface plasminogen activation.
Activation of plasminogen, the zymogen of the primary thrombolytic enzyme, plasmin, is markedly promoted when plasminogen is bound to cell surfaces, arming cells with the broad spectrum proteolytic activity of plasmin. In addition to its role in thrombolysis, cell surface plasmin facilitates a wide array of physiologic and pathologic processes. Carboxypeptidase B-sensitive plasminogen binding s...
متن کاملThe Plasminogen Receptor, Plg-RKT, and Macrophage Function
When plasminogen binds to cells its activation to plasmin is markedly enhanced compared to the reaction in solution. Thus, cells become armed with the broad spectrum proteolytic activity of plasmin. Cell-surface plasmin plays a key role in macrophage recruitment during the inflammatory response. Proteins exposing basic residues on the cell surface promote plasminogen activation on eukaryotic ce...
متن کاملIdentification of the Novel Plasminogen Receptor, Plg-RKT
1.1 The plasminogen activation system Initiation of the plasminogen activation system results in generation of the broad spectrum serine protease, plasmin, from the circulating zymogen, plasminogen. Plasminogen is activated to plasmin by plasminogen activators (PA’s), either urokinase type-plasminogen activator (u-PA) or tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), via specific proteolytic cleavag...
