Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor Necrosis Factor Soluble Receptors in Patients With Various Degrees of Congestive Heart Failure

TL;DR: Measurement of sTNF-Rs, in addition to antigenic and bioactive TNF-alpha, is essential for evaluation of the activation of this cytokine in CHF and might inhibit the in vitro cytotoxicity of T NF-alpha.
Journal ArticleDOI

The receptor-binding sequence of urokinase. A biological function for the growth-factor module of proteases.

TL;DR: The area within ATF responsible for specific receptor binding has now been identified by the ability of different synthetic peptides corresponding to different regions of the amino terminus of uPA to inhibit receptor binding of 125I-labeled ATF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differentiation-enhanced binding of the amino-terminal fragment of human urokinase plasminogen activator to a specific receptor on U937 monocytes.

TL;DR: An important role for urokinase in monocyte/macrophage biology is suggested: the native enzyme binds to the cells with the amino-terminal domain; the catalytic, carboxyl- terminal domain remains exposed on the cell surface to stimulate localized proteolysis and facilitate cell migration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancement of tumor necrosis factor alpha antitumor immunotherapeutic properties by targeted delivery to aminopeptidase N (CD13).

TL;DR: Results suggest that targeted delivery of TNF to CD13 may enhance its immunotherapeutic properties, and reveal the potential of tumor homing peptides to generate a new class of recombinant cytokines that compared to immunocytokines have a simpler structure, could be easier to produce and are potentially less immunogenic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autocrine saturation of pro-urokinase receptors on human A431 cells.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the synthesis of uPA and uPA receptor by the same cell may provide a pathway for the activation of the metastatic potential of malignant cells.
