Mediated by the urokinase-type and tissue-type plasminogen activators uPA and tPA, Plg can be converted into the serine protease plasmin (Plm), which is involved in fibrin degradation but can also process complement factors such as C3 and C5 [7,8]. (B) SZs were incubated with Plg-depleted plasma ( Plg) with/without Plg and/or tPA for 1 h and subjected to ELISA, using mAb TCC (technical triplicate; mean ± SD; Plg set to 1).
