| 11. | TPA, short for tissue plasminogen activator, is a genetically engineered version of a natural clot-dissolving protein.
|
| 12. | Barr used reteplase, a newer version of the better-known clot-busting drug TPA, or tissue plasminogen activator.
|
| 13. | Currently available thrombolytic agents include streptokinase, urokinase, and alteplase ( recombinant tissue plasminogen activator, rtPA ).
|
| 14. | The proteins are uPA-- short for urokinase-type plasminogen activator-- and its natural inhibitor, known as PAI-1.
|
| 15. | Activase is a genetically engineered version of the naturally occurring hormone tissue plasminogen activator, or t-PA.
|
| 16. | Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, an inhibitor of fibrinolysis, is present in higher levels in people with obesity.
|
| 17. | It stimulates various processes including mitogenesis, synthesis of extracellular matrix, glucose metabolism and synthesis of plasminogen activator.
|
| 18. | The somatomedin B domain of vitronectin binds to plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 ( PAI-1 ), and stabilizes it.
