General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction upregulation of the uPA system is correlated with malignancy of various carcinomas Homo sapiens
physiological function uPA binds to the urokinase receptor, uPAR, expressed on the surface of many cell types, that coordinates plasmin-mediated cell surface proteolysis for matrix remodeling and promotes cell adhesion by acting as a binding protein for vitronectin. Role of uPAR in the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, a process termed efferocytosis, overview Homo sapiens
