The experiments on white rats with induced myocardial infarction have studied the influence of dalargin on the infarction size and peri-infarction zone ultrastructure. 24 hours later the decrease in the infarction zone size was detected in rats who had received dalargin in a dose of 50 and 100
The effect of opiate peptides (leu-enkephalin, met-enkephalin and beta-endorphin) as well as of enkephalin synthetic analogs (two tetrapeptides and dalargin hexapeptide) on the activity of blood enzymes CPK and LDG1, the scope of myocardial infarction and ultrastructure of periinfarction
Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) administration beyond 4.5 h of stroke symptoms is beneficial for patients but has an increased risk of cerebral hemorrhage. Thus, increasing the therapeutic window of tPA is important for stroke recovery. We previously showed that prothymosin alpha (ProTα) or its
Plasmin is known to activate platelets. However, it is not clear whether plasminogen activators as used in thrombolytic therapy can aggregate platelets and how this relates to the ability of each activator to convert plasminogen to plasmin. Urokinase (UK) and streptokinase (SK) activated purified
The receptor for the serine protease thrombin, the protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1), has been recently characterized. Its key roles in thrombin-stimulated human platelet activation, vascular endothelial and smooth muscle proliferation, inflammatory responses and neurodegeneration suggest
The clinical use of tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) in the treatment of stroke is profoundly constrained by its serious side effects. We report that the deleterious effects of tPA on cerebral edema and intracranial bleeding are separable from its fibrinolytic activity and can be neutralized.
Cholesterol biosynthesis is among the most intensely regulated processes in biology. Synthetic rates vary over hundreds of fold depending on the availability of an external source of cholesterol. Studies of this feedback regulatory process have a rich history. The field began 75 years ago when
Osteopontin (OPN) is a secreted extracellular phosphoprotein involved in diverse biologic functions, including inflammation, cell migration, and antiapoptotic processes. Here we investigate the neuroprotective potential of OPN to reduce cell death using both in vitro and in vivo models of ischemia.
