## Abstract Thioglycollateβstimulated macrophages are known to release a plasminogen activator (PA) into the medium. In this study it was investigated whether macrophages could be activated to release PA after exposure to lymphokines. Macrophage monolayers obtained by 24 h culture of proteose pepto

Mowuclear phagocytes, an integral part of the lymphoreticular infiltrate of human and experimental tumors, might contribute to tumor-associated fibrin deposition through the development of procoagulant activity (PCA). We have investigated PCA of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) in 6 transplanted m
## Abstract The plasminogenβdependent fibrinolytic activity of several human tumours has been studied. The following neoplastic tissues, which were obtained from cancer patients by either surgery or biopsies, were examined: cervical, mammary, prostatic, ovarian, lung carcinomas, melanoma, basalioma
## Urokinase -type plasminogen activator (u-PA) plays an important role in tumor growth and metastasis. The aim of this work was to study the u-PA production, in vitro and in vivo, in a transplantable murine mammary adenocarcinoma (M3), moderately metastatic to lung, and in a related tumor variant
A new case of congenital hypodysfibrinogenemia associated with a thrombotic tendency (thrombosis of the peroneal artery, the pulmonary artery and the deep veins of the lower extremities), is reported. Clotting time using Reptilase was significantly prolonged. The low levels of plasma fibrinogen were
