(1) In 11 of the 22 cells PAI-1 mRNA and in 6 of the 22 cells PAI-2 mRNA was found, pointing to a possible role of plasminogen activator inhibitors in the tumor-related plasminogen activator activity.
(2) We conclude that heparin plus AT III partially prevents the endotoxin-induced generation of PAI activity which seems to correlate with the reduced presence of fibrin deposits in kidneys and with a reduced mortality.
(3) Patients with inflammatory bowel disease showed decreased tissue-type plasminogen activator antigen release (t-PA Ag), no significant Von Willebrand antigen release (vWF Ag), and a residual plasminogen activator inhibitor activity (PAI activity) after venous occlusion.
(4) To exclude potential interactions with components of the extracellular matrix which contains binding sites for PAI-1, ligand binding to HepG2 cells in suspension was assessed.
(5) Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), the primary physiological inhibitor of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) in plasma, is a serine proteinase inhibitor (serpin) that forms a 1:1 stoichiometric complex with its target proteinase leading to the formation of a stable inactive complex.
(6) Androgen receptor gene mutations were identified in nine CAIS and five PAIS subjects.
(7) Plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-I) rapidly inactivates tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and urokinase (UK) with nearly identical association rate constants.
(8) The increased PAI appears related to obesity and not diabetes per se.
(9) In the immunopurification of placental extract on anti-PAI-2 Sepharose, the eluate showed the expected reaction with Mab' PAI-2, and it also cross-reacted with anti-vitronectin serum.
(10) IL-1 beta decreased PAI-1 levels by 50% and stimulated PAI-2 levels sixfold.
(11) However, several areas showed a strong u-PA immunoreactivity, but no or low PAI-1 immunoreactivity.
(12) Added alone, H7 does not alter the basal junB or PAI-1 mRNA levels, the deposition of PAI-1 into the extracellular matrix, or the phosphorylation of RB in late G1 phase, suggesting that this inhibitor does not have a general nonspecific effect on the cell.
(13) While t-PA and u-PA levels were slightly lower than in adult controls, a significant decrease in PAI activity was demonstrated and no PAI-2 could be detected in fetal plasma.
(14) In recent clinical studies we have demonstrated that the level of plasma insulin correlated with that of PAI-1.
(15) VN associated with the ECM may confer retention and bioactivity to PAI-1, potentially facilitating both pericellular regulation of plasmin generation and the rapid hepatic clearance of plasminogen activators.
(16) Increases in PAI-1 mRNA levels were evident 1 h after growth factor treatment and were maximal after 4 h. PAI-1 mRNA levels were unaffected by cycloheximide treatment.
(17) To elucidate the mechanisms which govern expression of the PAI-1 gene, total cytoplasmic RNA was prepared from BAEs and analyzed by Northern blotting using a 1.3-kilobase (kb) human PAI-1 cDNA probe.
(18) It is presently unknown to what extent the treatment with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) inhibits platelet PAI-1 release and if release inhibition has an effect on plasma PAI-1 levels.
(19) PAI was increased in 87% of these patients compared to the healthy controls.
(20) It exploded when leading daily El Pais published copies of account ledgers purportedly showing irregular payments to top party members including Rajoy, its leader since 2004.
Pris

(4) One by one, our equivocal hero seeks out the runaways: worldly-wise Zhora (Joanna Cassidy); stolid Leon (Brion James); the “pleasure-model” Pris ( Daryl Hannah ); and the group’s apparent leader, the ultimate Nietzschean blond beast, Roy Batty (the wonderful Rutger Hauer).
(5) When Pris dies, she does so like a beetle thrashing and screeching on her back; the strangeness of it repulses sympathy.
(6) Do you trust me?” “I trust you.” After these words, Deckard denies his role as blade runner; the two of them end the film on the run, as Pris and Roy have been, their unrelenting mortality running with them.
(7) Pris frowns and looks round at the rest, finds no support, and with a little shake of her head says" "Well, it's you … It's your body, Guy.
(8) Indeed, probably about the only thing that the Iraqi pris oners, their tormentors and the judge who sentenced them can agree on is that even those immediately responsible have not been brought to account.
(9) In all groups, the mean PRIs are significantly higher in men.
(10) Pris appears, I think, hurt at first but then looks up at him and gives a small explosive laugh when she sees him smiling, winking at her.
