physiological function | tissue type plasminogen activator regulates myeloid-cell dependent neoangiogenesis during tissue regeneration. Serpin-resistant form of tPA expands the myeloid cell pool and mobilizes CD45+ CD11b+ proangiogenic, myeloid cells, by activating the extracellular proteases matrix metalloproteinase-9 and plasmin, a process dependent on vascular endothelial growth factor-A and Kit ligand signaling. tPA improves the incorporation of CD11b+ cells into ischemic tissues and increases expression of neoangiogenesis-related genes, including VEGF-A, kinetics and mechanism, overview. tPA can induce cell migration by binding to CD11b and degrading fibrin. Batroxobin, a drug that reduces circulating fibrinogen, prevents the tPA-mediated WBC and CD11b+ cell increase.
