[Mechanisms of thrombin-induced plasminogen activator release]
1Institut für Pharmakologie und Toxikologie, Medizinischen Akademie Erfurt.
Abstract:
The protein kinase C inhibitor H7 (10(-5) mol/l) is able to inhibit the thrombin-induced t-PA release in the isolated perfused pig ear. The thrombin-induced t-PA release can be blocked by increasing the intracellular c-AMP via either the activation of adenylate cyclase by means of forskolin, or the inhibition of the phosphodiesterase by means of motapizone or milrinone. Protein kinase C is assumed to be involved in the process of thrombin-induced t-PA release.
