Antitumor activity of the type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor and cytotoxic conjugate in vitro.

چکیده
Many cancer cell lines and cancers overexpress receptor bound urokinase plasminogen activator on the cell surface. The urokinase plasminogen activator bound to its receptor remains on the cell surface for a prolonged period of time. When urokinase plasminogen activator/urokinase plasminogen activator receptor complex binds plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), the inhibitor triggers a series of events leading to internalization of the entire complex. This mechanism makes a very attractive target for localization and internalization of PAI-1-based cytotoxic compounds in cancer treatment. We investigated the antitumor activity of PAI-1/A-chain cholera toxin in vitro. Fibrosarcoma-derived HT1080 cells treated with PAI-1 conjugate showed at least 4 times higher cell killing than the control KD normal fibroblast cell line.

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...

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...

Plasminogen activator inhibitor activity and other fibrinolytic variables in patients with coronary artery disease.
Several fibrinolytic variables, including plasminogen activator inhibitor activity, were studied before and after exercise in 67 normolipidaemic patients with coronary artery disease and in 25 hyperlipidaemic patients with coronary artery disease. Before exercise plasminogen activator inhibitor activity was higher in the patient groups than in a group of 10 healthy volunteers. For those who wer...
