## Abstract Although originally known as a plasma serine protease involved in clot dissolution, tPA and its primary inhibitor, PAIβ1, play crucial roles in synaptic reorganization and plasticity in the central nervous system. In contrast to the wide array of work conducted in neural cells, relative

## Abstract Rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cells treated with nerve growth factor (NGF) extend βneuritesβ and initiate a neuronal differentiation pathway. Although neurotrophins, growth factors [e.g., epidermal growth factor (EGF)], and other ligands induce many common primary response genes (PRGs) in P
We used an immunohistochemical assay with an antigenretrieval technique to study plasminogen activator inhibitor type-I (PAL I) expression in paraffin-embedded breast tissue samples at different stages of malignant transformation. We detected PAI-I in 15/20 invasive tumors. In several cases staining
## Abstract Astroglial cells are known to proliferate during development of the nervous system, as well as during postβtraumatic gliosis. We have previously shown that the proliferation of cultured astrocytes can be stimulated by the urokinaseβtype (uPA) of plasminogen activator (PA) and that astro
## Abstract The urokinaseβtype plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR, CD87) plays a central role in the plasminogen activation cascade, which participates in extracellular matrix degradation, cell migration and invasion. Here we performed a comprehensive immmunohistochemical evaluation of uPAR expre
The occurrence of type-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has not previously been reported. As a member of the serpin superfamily of serine protease inhibitors and an acute phase response component, PAI-1 has powerful potential roles in nervous system homeos
