Abstract excerpt
Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) is a fibrin-specific agent which is used to treat acute myocardial infarction. Pharmacokinetically, t-PA is characterized by a rapid clearance from the circulation. In a previous study, we constructed variant forms of t-PA with genetic modifications at the...
