Kooistra, T. (author), Schrauwen, Y. (author), Arts, J. (author), Emeis, J.J. (author), Gaubius Instituut TNO (author)The fibrinolytic activity of blood is to a large extent determined by the plasma level of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA). Changes in the plasma level of t-PA are mainly achieved by the endothelium by two mechanisms: (a) a rapid, short-term release of t-PA, which occurs within minutes (acute release, regulated secretion) and (b) a long...article 1994

Tranquille, N. (author), Emeis, J.J. (author), Gaubius Instituut TNO (author)The acute release of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) was studied in perfused rat hindlegs. Pretreatment of rats with the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide (2 mg/kg) at 1, 3 or 5 h prior to perfusion of rat hindlegs did not influence the amount of t-PA released by platelet-activating factor (20 nM) or bradykinin (1 μM). The...article 1989
