Abstract excerpt
We previously demonstrated that tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) specifically bound to its receptor (t-PAR) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). In addition to analyses of t-PA binding to plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in the extracellular matrix (ECM) and to the t-PAR, we further evaluated the binding of three t-PA mutants, deltaFE1X t-PA lacking finger (F), epidermal growth...
