Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetics of the activation of plasminogen by human tissue plasminogen activator. Role of fibrin.

TL;DR: The kinetic analysis suggested that the activation in the presence of fibrin occurs through binding of an activator molecule to the clot surface and subsequent addition of plasminogen (sequential ordered mechanism) to form a cyclic ternary complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Absence of host plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 prevents cancer invasion and vascularization

TL;DR: It is reported here that deficient PAI1 expression in host mice prevented local invasion and tumor vascularization of transplanted malignant keratinocytes and this experimental evidence demonstrates that host-produced PAI is essential for cancer cell invasion and angiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 gene-deficient mice. II. Effects on hemostasis, thrombosis, and thrombolysis.

TL;DR: Disruption of the PAI-1 gene in mice appears to induce a mild hyperfibrinolytic state and a greater resistance to venous thrombosis but not to impair hemostasis.
