Abstract excerpt
The recently reported plasmatic, Factor Seven Activating Protease (FSAP), has also been found to be a potent activator of pro-urokinase [single-chain plasminogen activator, urinary type (scuPA)]. An initial epidemiological study surprisingly showed that plasmas of 5-10% of healthy blood donors had an impaired potential to activate scuPA. Analysis of the respective genomic DNAs revealed one particular single...
