Evidence for wall shear stress-dependent t-PA release in human conduit arteries: role of endothelial factors and impact of high blood pressure
{{output}}
Tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) converts plasminogen into the serine protease plasmin, which in turn degrades fibrin clots. This study assessed whether an increase in shear stress is associated in humans in vivo with the release of t-PA in peripheral condu... ...
