Effect of dsRNA on mesangial cell synthesis of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 and tissue plasminogen activator.

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...

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...

Renal synthesis of urokinase type-plasminogen activator, its receptor, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in diabetic nephropathy in rats: modulation by angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor.

Plasmin is an important factor in the degradation of extracellular matrix. In the study reported here we examined the expression of plasminogen-activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), and uPA receptor (uPAR), as well as the relevance of such expression to the production of type IV collagen, a major component of extracellular matrix, in the renal tissue of rats...

Methyltetrahydrofolate Reductase C677T Mutation and 4G/5G Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 Polymorphism in a Child with Deep Vein Thrombosis

Proteomics Profiling of Chimeric-Truncated Tissue Plasminogen activator Producing- Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells Cultivated in a Chemically Defined Medium Supplemented with Protein Hydrolysates

Background: Culture media enrichment through the addition of protein hydrolysates is beneficial for achieving higher protein expression. Methods: In this study, designing the optimum mixture of four soy and casein-derived hydrolysates was successfully performed by design of experiment and specific productivity increased in all predicted combinations. Protein profile of recombinant CHO (rCHO) ce...
