Effects of Disruption of The Plasminogen Gene on Thrombosis, Growth, and Health in Mice
1 Nov 1995
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Circumstantial evidence suggests that the plasminogen/plasmin system plays a role in many biological processes, including hemostasis, cell migration, and development. METHODS AND RESULTS: The in vivo function of the plasminogen/plasmin system was studied by generation of plasminogen-deficient (Plg-/-) mice. Inactivation of the murine plasminogen-gene (Plg) was achieved by replacing, via homologous...
