Abstract excerpt
Tissue type plasminogen activator (t-PA) is released from endothelium in both a constitutive and regulated fashion. In healthy subjects, an association between net t-PA release rate and a few t-PA gene polymorphisms, including the Alu-repeat I/D polymorphism in intron 8, was described. The possible influence of the Alu-repeat polymorphism on t-PA release was evaluated after a venous occlusion test (VO) in 82...
