Aims: Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is the main and potent endogenous tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) inhibitor, but an important question on whether PAI-1 in blood stream responds and interferes with the exogenously administered tPA remains unexplored. We for the first time investigated temporal profiles of PAI-1 concentration and activity in circulation after stroke and tPA administration in rats. Methods: Permanent MCAO focal stroke of rats were treated with saline or 10mg/kg tPA at 3 hours after stroke (n=10 per group). Plasma (platelet free) PAI-1 antigen and activity levels were measured by ELISA at before stroke, 3, 4.5 (1.5 hours after saline or tPA treatments) and 24 hours after stroke. Since vascular endothelial cells and platelets are two major cellular sources for PAI-1 in circulation, we measured releases of PAI-1 from cultured endothelial cells and isolated platelets after direct tPA (4 μg/ml) exposures for 60 min in vitro by ELISA (n=4 per group). Results: At 3 hours after stroke, both plasma PAI-1 antigen and activity were significantly increased (3.09±0.67, and 3.42±0.57 fold of before stroke baseline, respectively, all data are expressed as mean±SE). At 4.5 hours after stroke, intravenous tPA administration significantly further elevated PAI-1 antigen levels (5.26±1.24), while as expected that tPA neutralized most elevated PAI-1 activity (0.33±0.05). At 24 hours after stroke, PAI-1 antigen levels returned to the before baseline level, however, there was a significantly higher PAI-1 activity (2.51±0.53) in tPA treated rats. In vitro tPA exposures significantly increased PAI-1 releases into culture medium in cultured endothelial cells (1.65±0.08) and platelets (2.02±0.17). Conclution: Our experimental results suggest that tPA administration may further elevate stroke-increased blood PAI-1 concentration, but also increase PAI-1 activity at late 24 hours after stroke. The increased PAI-1 releases after tPA exposures in vitro suggest tPA may directly stimulate PAI-1 secretions from vascular walls and circulation platelets, which partially contributes to the PAI-1 elevation observed in focal stroke rats. The underlying regulation mechanisms and pathological consequence need further investigation.

SummaryPlasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) is the principal physiological inhibitor of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and has been identified as a risk factor in cardiovascular diseases. In order to generate nanobodies against PAI-1 to interfere with its functional properties, we constructed three nanobody libraries upon immunisation of three alpacas with three different PAI-1 variants. Three panels of nanobodies were selected against these PAI-1 variants. Evaluation of the amino acid sequence identity of the complementarity determining region-3 (CDR3) reveals 34 clusters in total. Five nanobodies (VHH-s-a98, VHH-2w-64, VHH-s-a27, VHH-s-a93 and VHH-2g-42) representing five clusters exhibit inhibition towards PAI-1 activity. VHH-s-a98 and VHH-2w-64 inhibit both glycosylated and non-glycosylated PAI-1 variants through a substrate-inducing mechanism, and bind to two different regions close to αhC and the hinge region of αhF; the profibrinolytic effect of both nanobodies was confirmed using an in vitro clot lysis assay. VHH-s-a93 may inhibit PAI-1 activity by preventing the formation of the initial PAI-1•t-PA complex formation and binds to the hinge region of the reactive centre loop. Epitopes of VHH-s-a27 and VHH-2g-42 could not be deduced yet. These five nanobodies interfere with PAI-1 activity through different mechanisms and merit further evaluation for the development of future profibrinolytic therapeutics.

SummaryPlatelet-rich clots are inefficiently lysed by current fibrinolytic agents. Platelets contain a great deal of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), the principal endogenous inhibitor of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA). We have tested whether PAI-1 resistant t-PAs would be more effective thrombolytic agents in an in vitro model of platelet rich clots. Clots were formed with recalcified human plasma without or with the addition of platelets. The lysis of these clots was followed by the release of incorporated 125I-fibrinogen. Mutant and wild-type t-PA were almost equally effective against clots lacking platelets but the mutant was twice as effective at lysing platelet-rich clots. A mechanism for this effect is suggested by the demonstration that a complex between wild-type t-PA and extruded platelet contents resembles that between purified t-PA and PAI-1 and that the PAI-1 resistant t-PA does not interfere with formation of this adduct. Because of its enhanced ability to lyse platelet-rich clots in vitro, further in vivo work may find that PAI-1 resistant t-PA is a more efficacious therapeutic agent than wild-type t-PA in situations where platelets contribute to the failure of thrombolysis.

A mutant of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA), obtained by deletion of residues Lys296 to Gly302 [rt-PA del(K296- G302)], was previously shown to be resistant to inhibition by plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) (Madison et al, Nature 339:721, 1989). This mutant was obtained by expression of its cDNA in Chinese hamster ovary cells and purification to homogeneity from conditioned cell culture medium. It was obtained as a single chain molecule with amidolytic activity, specific fibrinolytic activity, and binding to fibrin and lysine, which were comparable or somewhat lower than those of wild-type rt-PA obtained in the same expression system. The plasminogen-activating potential of rt-PA del(K296-G302) in the presence of CNBr-digested fibrinogen was about twofold lower than that of wild-type rt-PA. The inhibition rate of rt-PA del(K296-G302) by recombinant PAI-1 (rPAI-1) was more than 500-fold lower than that of wild-type rt-PA. In a human plasma milieu in vitro, rt-PA del(K296- G302) induced dose-dependent lysis of a 125I-fibrin-labeled plasma clot; equi-effective concentrations (causing 50% clot lysis in 2 hours) were 0.28 micrograms/mL and 0.36 micrograms/mL for mutant and wild-type rt-PA, respectively. In this system, addition of rPAI-1 to the plasma resulted in a concentration-dependent reduction of the fibrinolytic potency of rt-PA del(K296-G302) and of rt-PA; a 50% reduction required 2.4 micrograms/mL and 0.15 micrograms/mL rPAI-1, respectively. Continuous infusion of mutant or wild-type rt-PA over 60 minutes in hamsters with a 125I-labeled plasma clot in the pulmonary artery resulted in dose-dependent clot lysis, with a thrombolytic potency (percent clot lysis per milligram of compound administered per kilogram of body weight) and a specific thrombolytic activity (percent clot lysis per microgram per milliliter steady state rt-PA-related antigen level in plasma) that were not significantly different. Bolus injection in hamsters of 1 mg/kg rPAI-1 followed by bolus injection of 1 mg/kg rt- PA del(K296-G302) or wild-type rt-PA resulted in neutralization of the thrombolytic potency of wild-type rt-PA, while the mutant retained approximately half of its thrombolytic potency. These results indicate that rt-PA del(K296-G302), with a known resistance to inhibition by rPAI-1 in purified systems, maintains this property both in a plasma milieu in vitro and in an experimental animal model of thrombolysis in vivo.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS).

SummaryThrombolytic therapy successfully reopens obstructed blood vessels in the majority of cases. However, it is not known why a substantial amount of thrombi are resistant to lysis by a fibrinolytic agent. In vitro studies have demonstrated that tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen incorporated in the clot (during formation) increase lysibility. To test whether lysibility of in vivo formed human thrombi is related to their composition, we studied 25 venous thrombi obtained at autopsy and 21 arterial thrombi obtained during embolectomy.Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) antigen was measured in a phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) extract of each thrombus; t-PA antigen and plasminogen antigen were determined in a 6 M urea extract of the thrombus, representing bound proteins. Lysibility was measured as weight reduction during 8 h of incubation in PBS containing streptokinase (SK) 100 U/ml, corrected for spontaneous lysis, reflected by weight loss in PBS without SK. In addition, lysibility in SK was compared with lysibility in urokinase (UK) 100 U/ml and in t-PA 200 U/ml.Spontaneous lysis amounted to 29 ± 5% (mean ± SEM) and 33 ± 5% in venous and arterial thrombi, respectively, and inversely correlated with the PAI-1 content of thrombi (r = —0.43, p <0.01). Lysibility amounted to 76 ± 6% in venous and 90 ± 4% in arterial thrombi (venous vs. arterial: p = 0.051). PAI-1-, plasminogen- and t-PA-content of venous thrombi were 902 ± 129 ng, 34.3 ± 4.8 pg and 26.7 ± 3.0 ng per gram of wet thrombus respectively; for arterial thrombi these values were 2,031 ± 401 ng/g (p = 0.011), 64.1 ± 11.4 pg/g (p = 0.088) and 62.2 ± 8.3 ng/g (p = 0.0001), respectively. A correlation was found between t-PA and plasminogen (r = 0.74, p <0.001). Lysibility by SK related to plasminogen content in both venous (r = 0.60, p <0.002) and arterial (r = 0.44, p <0.05) thrombi; PAI-1 and t-PA did not correlate with lysibility. Lysibility in the chosen concentrations of SK, UK and t-PA were similar.We conclude that spontaneous lysis of thrombi in saline is dependent on PAI-1 content and that susceptibility of thrombibi to lysis by SK ex vivo is dependent on the plasminogen content

This study aimed to investigate the endothelial function in a canine model of burn injury combined with seawater immersion. The model of burn injury was established. The dogs were randomly divided into four groups including dogs with burn injury (B group), or burn injury combined with seawater immersion (BI group), or only immersion in seawater (I group), or control animals with no injury or immersion (C group). The circulating endothelial cell (CEC) count and coagulation-fibrinolysis parameters were measured. The CEC count in B group increased at 4 h, 7 h, and 10 h after injury and then reduced, whereas it continuously increased to a greater extent in BI group (P<0.05). The von Willebrand factor (vWF) activity, plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), and the ratio of thromboxane B2 (TXB2) to 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α(6-K-PGF1α) in BI group had a marked increase after injury, and the tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) in the BI group decreased. Microscope observations revealed thrombus formation in lungs of the animals in BI group, but not in C, I, or B groups. Burn injury causes endothelial dysfunction, and seawater immersion lastingly aggravates this injury, leading to a higher risk of developing thrombosis.
