RESUMO

Idiopathic pulmonary interstitial fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease. Its prognosis is worse than that of many cancers. Its pathogenesis is complex and unclear. The imbalance of coagulation system and fibrinolysis system was confirmed in both animal models of pulmonary fibrosis and patients with IPF. This paper expounds the possible injury mechanism of the imbalance of coagulation and fibrinolysis system in IPF, and provides a new idea for the treatment of IPF.

RESUMO

RESUMO Objetivo: Determinar o desempenho da dosagem do receptor ativador de plasminogênio tipo uroquinase solúvel quando da alta da unidade de terapia intensiva para predição da mortalidade após permanência na mesma unidade. Métodos: Durante 24 meses conduziu-se um estudo prospectivo observacional de coorte em uma unidade de terapia intensiva polivalente de oito leitos. Colheram-se os seguintes dados: APACHE II, SOFA, níveis de proteína C-reativa e receptor ativador de plasminogênio tipo uroquinase solúvel, além de contagem de leucócitos no dia da alta da unidade de terapia intensiva, em pacientes que sobreviveram à permanência na unidade de terapia intensiva. Resultados: Durante este período, incluíram-se no estudo 202 pacientes; 29 (18,6%) morreram após alta da unidade de terapia intensiva. Os não sobreviventes eram mais idosos e tinham enfermidades mais graves quando admitidos à unidade de terapia intensiva, com escores de severidade mais elevados, e necessitaram de vasopressores por mais tempo do que os que sobreviveram. As áreas sob a curva Característica de Operação do Receptor para SOFA, APACHE II, proteína C-reativa, contagem de leucócitos e receptor ativador de plasminogênio tipo uroquinase solúvel, no momento da alta da unidade de terapia intensiva, avaliadas como marcadores de prognóstico de morte hospitalar, foram, respectivamente, 0,78 (IC95% 0,70 - 0,86); 0,70 (IC95% 0,61 - 0,79); 0,54 (IC95% 0,42 - 0,65); 0,48 (IC95% 0,36 - 0,58); 0,68 (IC95% 0,58 - 0,78). O SOFA associou-se de forma independente com risco mais elevado de morte no hospital (OR 1,673; IC95% 1,252 - 2,234), assim como para mortalidade após 28 dias (OR 1,861; IC95% 1,856 - 2,555) e mortalidade após 90 dias (OR 1,584; IC95% 1,241 - 2,022). Conclusão: A dosagem do receptor ativador de plasminogênio tipo uroquinase solúvel na alta unidade de terapia intensiva teve um valor prognóstico fraco de mortalidade após a permanência nesta unidade.


ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the performance of soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor upon intensive care unit discharge to predict post intensive care unit mortality. Methods: A prospective observational cohort study was conducted during a 24-month period in an 8-bed polyvalent intensive care unit. APACHE II, SOFA, C-reactive protein, white cell count and soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor on the day of intensive care unit discharge were collected from patients who survived intensive care unit admission. Results: Two hundred and two patients were included in this study, 29 patients (18.6%) of whom died after intensive care unit discharge. Nonsurvivors were older and more seriously ill upon intensive care unit admission with higher severity scores, and nonsurvivors required extended use of vasopressors than did survivors. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curves of SOFA, APACHE II, C-reactive protein, white cell count, and soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor at intensive care unit discharge as prognostic markers of hospital death were 0.78 (95%CI 0.70 - 0.86); 0.70 (95%CI 0.61 - 0.79); 0.54 (95%CI 0.42 - 0.65); 0.48 (95%CI 0.36 - 0.58); and 0.68 (95%CI 0.58 - 0.78), respectively. SOFA was independently associated with a higher risk of in-hospital mortality (OR 1.673; 95%CI 1.252 - 2.234), 28-day mortality (OR 1.861; 95%CI 1.856 - 2.555) and 90-day mortality (OR 1.584; 95%CI 1.241 - 2.022). Conclusion: At intensive care unit discharge, soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor is a poor predictor of post intensive care unit prognosis.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the value of soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) in the diagnosis of acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) and in monitoring treatment response, analyzing the relationship between suPAR and fibrinogen in AECOPD. AECOPD leads to increased airway inflammation, contributing to an exaggerated release of inflammatory mediators. Methods: We recruited 45 patients with AECOPD and 20 healthy control subjects. Medical histories were taken, and all subjects underwent clinical examination, chest X-ray, pulmonary function tests, and blood gas analysis. On day 1 (treatment initiation for the AECOPD patients) and day 14 (end of treatment), blood samples were collected for the determination of serum suPAR and plasma fibrinogen. Results: Serum levels of suPAR were significantly higher in the AECOPD group than in the control group. In the AECOPD patients, there was a significant post-treatment decrease in the mean serum suPAR level. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of suPAR were 95.6%, 80.0%, and 93.0%, respectively. The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease stage (i.e., COPD severity) correlated positively and significantly with serum levels of suPAR and plasma levels of fibrinogen. Conclusions: Monitoring the serum suPAR level can be helpful in the evaluation of the COPD treatment response and might be a valuable biomarker for determining the prognosis of AECOPD. Because serum suPAR correlated with plasma fibrinogen, both markers could be predictive of AECOPD.


RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar o valor do soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR, receptor do ativador de plasminogênio tipo uroquinase solúvel) no diagnóstico de exacerbação aguda da DPOC (EADPOC) e no monitoramento da resposta ao tratamento, analisando-se a relação entre o suPAR e o fibrinogênio na EADPOC. A EADPOC leva ao aumento da inflamação das vias aéreas, contribuindo para a liberação exagerada de mediadores inflamatórios. Métodos: Foram recrutados 45 pacientes com EADPOC e 20 controles saudáveis. Realizou-se anamnese, e todos os indivíduos foram submetidos a exame clínico, radiografia de tórax, provas de função pulmonar e gasometria arterial. No dia 1 (início do tratamento para os pacientes com EADPOC) e no dia 14 (final do tratamento), foram coletadas amostras de sangue para dosagem de suPAR sérico e de fibrinogênio plasmático. Resultados: Os níveis séricos de suPAR foram significativamente maiores no grupo EADPOC do que no grupo controle. Nos pacientes com EADPOC, houve diminuição significativa da média de suPAR sérico após o tratamento. A sensibilidade, a especificidade e a acurácia do suPAR foram, respectivamente, de 95,6%, 80,0% e 93,0%. O estágio da doença segundo a Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (isto é, a gravidade da DPOC) apresentou correlação positiva e significativa com os níveis séricos de suPAR e os níveis plasmáticos de fibrinogênio. Conclusões: O monitoramento do suPAR sérico pode ser útil na avaliação da resposta ao tratamento da DPOC e seria um biomarcador valioso para a determinação do prognóstico da EADPOC. Como o suPAR sérico apresentou correlação com o fibrinogênio plasmático, ambos os marcadores poderiam ser preditores da EADPOC.

RESUMO

Objective: To explore the relationship between plasma level of soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) and the severity of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with its influence factors. Methods: A total of 321 consecutive patients with chest pain admitted in our hospital from 2015-03 to 2016-09 were studied. According to clinical presentation, laboratory test and coronary angiography (CAG), the patients were divided into 2 groups: ACS group, n=228 and Control group, the patients with normal coronary artery, n=93. Plasma levels of suPAR and high sensitive C reaction protein (hs-CRP) were measured by ELISA and compared between 2 groups. Results: The levels of plasma suPAR in ACS patients were significantly higher than those in the control group (OR= 0.104, 95% CI: 0.048-0.223, P<0.01). In ACS group, the plasma suPAR level gradually increased with the increase of Gensini score, The sensitivity and specificity of the levels of suPAR were determined by ROC curve. The values of ACS were predicted to be 1.8 μg / L, the sensitivity was 0.732 and the specificity was 0.710. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that smoking, Gensini score and uric acid were the main factors affecting plasma suPAR levels. Conclusion: Elevated plasma suPAR level has been related to the severity of coronary stenosis in ACS patients, such relationship is superior to hs-CRP; suPAR might be worked as a new biomarker for predicting coronary stenosis and risk stratification in ACS patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), uPA receptor (uPAR), and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 on podocytes in immunoglobulin A (IgA) glomerulonephritis (GN). METHODS: Renal biopsy specimens from 52 IgA GN patients were deparaffinized and subjected to immunohistochemical staining for uPA, PAI-1, and uPAR. The biopsies were classified into three groups according to the expression of uPA and uPAR on podocytes: uPA, uPAR, and a negative group. The prevalences of the variables of the Oxford classification for IgA GN were compared among the groups. RESULTS: On podocytes, uPA was positive in 11 cases and uPAR was positive in 38 cases; by contrast, PAI-1 was negative in all cases. Expression of both uPA and uPAR on podocytes was less frequently accompanied by tubulointerstitial fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest a possible protective effect of podocyte uPA/uPAR expression against interstitial fibrosis.

Objective To observe the changes in fibrinolytic factors in rats with pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) after recombinant prourokinase ( rPro-UK) treatment and its significance .Methods PTE was induced in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats by injecting heated 125iodine-labeled fibrinogen(Fib) autologous thromboemboli into external jugular veins.Twenty-eight rats were randomly assigned into following groups (7 rats each):①healthy control group;②PTE 5 d group,the rats in which were sacrificed at 5 d after the PTE model was made; ③ PTE3d receiving rPro-UK thrombolytic treament groups including multibolus treatment sub group ( rPro-UK was given in 1 mg/kg on the post-PTE third day followed by 2 consecutive days of a lower dose 0.25 mg/kg and rats were sacrificed 2 h after the last injection at the same time as PTE5d group) and single bolus treatment sub group ( rPro-UK was given in 1 mg/kg on the post-PTE third day followed by 2 consecutive days of 0.5 ml saline and rats were sacrificad at the same time as the former group ).The rats were quickly sacrificad at the fixed time through carotid bleeding and plasma samples were reserved for analysis of uroki -nase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA), urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (u-PAR), fibrinogen (Fib) andα2-antiplasmin (α2-AP) .Results ①Plasma concentrations of u-PA and u-PAR were increased were significantly in rPro-UK multibolus treatment sub group than in PTE 5 d group(Pu-PA 0.05).Conclusion ① Plasma levels of endogenous u-PA and u-PAR are increased at different time points after PTE and are further enhanced after Pro-UK treatment, which promotes endogenous fibrinolysis and thrombus lysis .This is probably related to increased synthesis and secretion of endothelial cells which may be a key thrombolytic mechanism of Pro-UK.②Absence of systemic activation of the fibrinolytic system in Pro-UK multibo-lus treatment sub group means that the regimen is feasible and Pro-UK is fibrin specific .

RESUMO

Objective To explore whether the expression level of heparanase (HPA) and its coagulation proteins on leukemic blast membrane could determine the hemostatic balance on the surface of leukemia cells.Methods Forty patients of leukemia were studied,and 20 patients with iron dificient anemia as the control group.Expression of tissue factor (TF),heparanase (HPA),tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI),and urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (UPAR) on leukemic blast surfaces were analyzed by flowcytometry.Results The expression of TF,UPAR,and HPA in AML,ALL,CML,CLL and CRAL groups were significantly higher compared with the control group (t =.3.289,3.507,2.701,P <0.05; t =2.498,0.802,3.090,P <0.05; t =2.642,3.308,2.696,P <0.05; t =3.417,3.434,2.382,P <0.05; t =2.193,2.272,2.263,P <0.05).There were no significantly differences between the leukemic cell expression of TFPI and the control group (P >0.05).Expression of TF,UPAR,HPA in AML patients were significantly higher than ALL,CML and CLL groups (t =2.463,2.179,2.276,P <0.05; t =2.637,2.402,2.095,P <0.05; t =2.548,2.425,2.412,P <0.05).The levels of TF,UPAR and HPA in M3,M4 and M5 patients were higher than that of M1,M2 groups (P <0.05).There were no significantly differences among M3,M4 and M5 (P >0.05).Conclusions These results suggest that TF,UPAR and HPA are predominately expressed on leukemic blast surface,particularly in M3and M4,5 subtypes.The expression of coagulation proteins on blast membrane might determine the hemostatic balance on the surface of leukemia cells.

RESUMO

Newborns are at the highest risk for thromboembolism, although significant thromboembolic diseases are relatively rare in children and newborn. The use of central catheters seems to be the most important risk factor for vein and artery thrombosis. Additional risk factors include the properties of developing hemostatic system, hereditary, and acquired risk factors. Treatment for neonatal thromboembolism has not been established. We report a case of deep vein thrombosis that was completely treated with urokinse in extremely low birth weight infant.

RESUMO

Objective To explore the role of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1)in development of progressive fibrosis via the inhibition of extracellular matrix degradation,and to reveal the contributive role of PAI-1 in muscular dystrophy(MD).Methods Expression and cellular localization of PAI-1 protein were examined in frozen muscle specimens obtained via biopsy from 5 patients with duchenne muscular dystrophy(DMD),3 patients with becker muscular dystrophy(BMD),9 patients with congenital muscular dystrophy(CMD) and 4 cases with normal muscle by immunohistochemistry,double immunofluorescence and Western-blot analysis.Results PAI-1 was positive only in vascular endothelial cells of normal muscle.Both immunohistochemistry and Western-blot analysis showed that PAI-1 expression distinctly increased in most dystrophic muscles of MD than that in normal muscles.Double immunolabeling revealed that PAI-1 strongly expressed in cytoplasm and nuclei of regenerating muscle fibers,macrophages,macrophage infiltrating necrotic fibers.Some activated fibroblasts in endomysium and perimysium of DMD and CMD muscles were positive for PAI-1.Conclusions The functional consequence of overexpression of PAI-1 in dystrophic muscles is unknown but the elevated local expression of PAI-1 in diseased muscles of MD and their distinct distribution pattern provide evidence that PAI-1 participate in pathogenesis of MD.

RESUMO

AIM: To investigate the effect of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) on metastasis inhibition of gastric cancer SGC7901cells induced by parthenolide. METHODS: The changes of SGC7901 cells reproductive activity were analyzed by MTT. Light microscope was used to observe the cell morphological changes. The effects of parthenolide on migration and invasion capacity of SGC7901 cells were determined by using matrigel and transwell system. The expression of uPA was detected by Western blot and RT-PCR assays. RESULTS: Parthenolide inhibited the proliferation of SGC7901 cells in a time-and concentration -dependent manner ranging from 100 to 200 ?mol/L. Light microscopy showed the suppressing effect on growth of SGC7901 cells. After exposed to parthenolide, the migration and invasion capacity of SGC7901 cells were significantly decreased, the number of cells gradually decreased through the basement membrance. The Western blot assay showed that the expression of uPA protein declined gradually after exposed to parthenolide for various period of time. CONCLUSION: Parthenolide can inhibit the growth and metastasis activity of SGC7901 cells, and uPA played an important role in the latter process.

RESUMO

Purpose To investigate the role of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA),uPA receptor (uPAR),tissue type plasminogen activator (tPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) in the invasiveness of human breast cancer cells. Methods Three human breast cancer cell lines with different invasive ability were taken as research targets.RT-PCR and milk plates methods were used to detect the expression of uPA system members and the PA activities,respectively.Modified Boyden's chamber model was employed to detect the invasive ability of cancer cell. Results MDA-MB-231 could express high level of uPA,uPAR,PAI-1 and low level of tPA.MDA-MB-435 could express lower level of uPA and hight level of tPA,but no PAI-1 and uPAR were detected.MCF-7 could express lower level of uPAR and high level of PAI-1,but no uPA and tPA were detected.MDA-MB-231 cells showed the highest total PA and uPA activity.MDA-MB-435 cells also showed high total PA activity,but almost all the activity owed to tPA.MCF-7 showed almost no PA activity.Correlated with their PA activities,MDA-MB-231 was found the most invasive in vitro,followed by MDA-MB-435,and MCF-7 almost had no invasive ability.The antibodies against uPA and uPAR were significantly effective in reducing the matrigel invasiveness of MDA-MB-231 by approximately 83.1% and 43.9% respectively (P<0.05). Conclusions Co-expression of uPA,uPAR and PAI-1 in human breast cancer highly correlates with the invasiveness in vitro.

RESUMO

Purpose To investigate the significance of u-PA and PAI-1 expression on the glomeruli,and the effect of heparin on their expressions in rat anti-thy1 glomerulonephritis. Methods We analyzed the cell proliferation and the expression of u-PA/PAI-1 on the glomeruli by immunohistochemistry and quantitative analysis of immunostaining. Results The cell proliferation of the glomeruli decreased significantly at 7 th,14 th,21 st day after heparin treatment in comparison to the glomerulonephritic group(P<0.05 or 0.01).The expression of u-PA and PAI-1 on the glomeruli in glomerulonephritic and heparin-treated groups was higher than that in the control group.At 3 rd,7 th,14 th,21 st day,the glomerular hypercellularity in the glomerulonephritic group was closely related to the increased expression of u-PA and PAI-1(P<0.05 or 0.01).At 3 rd,7 th day,the decreased cell proliferation of the glomeruli in heparin-treated group had close relationship with the decreased expression of PAI-1(P<0.05). Conclusions In rat anti-thy 1 glomerulonephritis model,the expression of u-PA and PAI-1 increased with glomerular hypercellularity;heparin treatment can decrease the extent of glomerular hypercellularity in rat anti-thy 1 glomerulonephritis.The treatment function of heparin might be related with the inhibitory effect of PAI-1 expression on the glomeruli.
