## Abstract The urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) receptor (uPAR) is a GPI‐linked cell surface protein that facilitates focused plasmin proteolytic activity at the cell surface. uPAR has been detected in macrophages infiltrating the central nervous system (CNS) and soluble uPAR has been detecte
Oncostatin M (OSM) is an inflammatory cytokine produced by activated macrophages and T-lymphocytes. We have previously demonstrated that OSM-induced endothelial cell migration, unlike endothelial cell proliferation and spindle formation, is independent of basic fibroblast growth factor expression (W
