BACKGROUND Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), the specific, fast-acting inhibitor of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), binds to fibrin and has been found in high concentrations within arterial thrombi. These findings suggest that the localization of PAI-1 to a thrombus protects that same thrombus from fibrinolysis. In this study, clot-bound PAI-1 was assessed for its ability to ...
The adipokine plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 is increased in plasma of obese individuals and exhibits increased expression in the stomachs of individuals infected with Helicobacter. To investigate the relevance of gastric PAI-1, we used 1.1 kb of the H(+)/K(+)β subunit promoter to overexpress PAI-1 specifically in mouse gastric parietal cells (PAI-1-H/Kβ mice). We studied the physiolog...
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that pharmacological plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 inhibition protects against renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system-induced cardiovascular injury, the effect of a novel orally active small-molecule PAI-1 inhibitor, PAI-039, was examined in a mouse model of angiotensin (Ang) II-induced vascular remodeling and cardiac fibrosis. METHODS AND RESULTS Unin...
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is a primary regulator of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA). It inhibits uPA by forming a covalent complex, thus blocking uPA’s interaction with substrates. The half-life of active PAI-1 is < 1 h and it is easily transformed to a more stable inactive latent form. By binding with vitronectin, PAI-1 can be stabilized and remained its activity. PA...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the ability of bone marrow (BM)-derived cells to modulate neointimal growth after injury by expressing plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). METHODS AND RESULTS We performed BM transplantation (BMT) in lethally irradiated wild-type (WT) and PAI-1(-/-) mice. Three weeks after carotid injury with ferric chloride, analysis of Y-chromosome DNA expression in the vesse...
Elevated levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) are characteristic for obesity and are associated with increased risk of thromboembolic complications. PAI-1 recently was reported to be expressed and secreted by human adipocytes, but little is known about regulation of PAI-1 in human adipose tissue. Therefore, we examined the effects of selected cytokines present in adipose tissue o...
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich arterial thrombi are resistant to lysis by plasminogen activators. However, the mechanisms underlying thrombolysis resistance are poorly defined. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), which is present in plasma, platelets, and vascular endothelium, may be an important determinant of the resistance of arterial thrombi to lysis. However, in vitro studies examining th...
We compared urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) in fluid phase and u-PA bound with its receptor on human blood monocytes with respect to proteolytic activity and susceptibility to inactivation by the plasminogen activator inhibitors PAI-1 and PAI-2. Receptor-bound u-PA is catalytically twice as efficient as fluid-phase u-PA. Fluid-phase u-PA is susceptible to rapid inhibition by PAI-1 a...
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is elevated in various cancers, where it has been shown to effect cell migration and invasion and angiogenesis. While, PAI-1 is a secreted protein, its intercellular levels are increased in cancer cells. Consequently, intracellular PAI-1 could contribute to cancer progression. While various small molecule inhibitors of PAI-1 are currently being investig...
Plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) levels are consistently elevated in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis and highly predictive for an unfavorable outcome. In addition, pneumonia is associated with strongly elevated PAI-1 levels in the pulmonary compartment. However, whether PAI-1 causally affects antibacterial host defense in vivo remains unknown. We report here that pneumon...
