چکیده

Thrombolysis has become an accepted form of therapy for acute myocardial infarction. As demonstrated in the Global Utilization of Streptokinase and t-PA for Occluded Arteries trial, early, complete and sustained patency of the infarct-related coronary artery is correlated with reduced mortality. However, current thrombolytic regimens are able to achieve such patency within 90 min in only 81% of cases. To improve the risk/benefit ratio of thrombolytic therapy, newer agents such as reteplase have been developed to establish more rapid, more complete and more stable coronary artery patency, thus reducing mortality. This report summarizes the pharmacological properties of reteplase. It also summarizes the findings from various animal and clinical studies in which reteplase was compared with alteplase and streptokinase and the findings from animal and clinical studies evaluating infusion, single-bolus, double-bolus, doses of reteplase.

Optimizing refolding condition for recombinant tissue plasminogen activator

Low molecular size additives such as L-arginine and the redox compounds have been used both in the culturemedium and in vitro refolding to increase recombinant proteins production. Additives increase proteinrefolding and yield of active proteins by suppressing aggregate formation or enhancing refolding process.In this work, a comparative study was performed on refolding of rec...

Destruction of Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator (rtPA) -Loaded Echogenic Liposomes under Dual Frequency Sonication

Background:Echogenic liposomes (ELIPs) encapsulate drugs and gas bubbles within lipid vesicles. The destruction of ELIPs in response to MHz and kHz ultrasound waves has been studied previously. Applying ultrasound above a certain threshold causes encapsulated gas bubbles destruct rapidly by fragmentation or more slowly by acoustically driven diffusion. This study compares the d...

Serum 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...
