Description
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 is the principal inhibitor of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and Urokinase (uPA), the activators of plasminogen and hence fibrinolysis (the physiological breakdown of blood clots). It is a serine protease inhibitor (serpin) protein (SERPINE1). The other PAI, plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI-2) is secreted by the placenta and only present in significant amounts during pregnancy. In addition, protease nexin acts as an inhibitor of tPA and urokinase. SERPINE1, however, is the main inhibitor of the plasminogen activators.
