Soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor in venous ulcers
… give rise to better treatments.<br/>Urokinsae plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR), a GPI anchored 3‐domain<br/>protein exists either attached to cell wall or in soluble forms (suPARI‐III, suPARI<br/>& suPARII‐III fragments). Cleavage of uPAR results in a number of nonproteolytic<br/>functions …

Kininogen and Ferritin in Tumorigenesis
… cell surface have been identified including urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR, CD87), cytokeratin 1(CK1), globular “head” of C1q (gC1q-R) and tropomyosin, of which uPAR is the most studied and most relevant to tumorigenesis. Tumor cells frequently overexpress uPAR. The work …

Dissection of receptor functions through the generation of a tcu-PA cleavage resistant u-PAR: a u-PA independent active u-PAR
… inflammation, wound healing, and tumor invasion. Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (u-PAR) has been widely studied in both systemic and cellular processes. Systemic roles for u-PAR include angiogenesis, inflammation and cancer while cellular roles include cell proliferation, survival, …

How the Outside Gets in: Linking Social and Physical Environments with Physiology and Body Size in Wild Baboons
… acute inflammation: c-reactive protein, soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor, interleukin 6, interleukin 1-beta, and tumor necrosis factor alpha. We test two measures of early-life adversity: maternal loss and a cumulative measure that incorporates 5 different potential sources of …

Investigating spatial distribution and dynamics of membrane proteins in polymer-tethered lipid bilayer systems using single molecule-sensitive imaging techniques
… state and distribution of GPI-anchored urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) and the transmembrane protein αvβ3 integrin. Experiments on uPAR showed that receptor oligomerization and raft sequestration are predominantly influenced by the binding of natural ligands, but are …
