General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction altered tPA activity levels in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease and spinocerebellar ataxia type-1, SCA1. Decreased tPA activity is detected in the cortex and subcortex of Alzheimer's disease mice, whereas increased tPA activity is found in the cerebellum of SCA1 mice Mus musculus
physiological function tPA is an initiator of intravascular fibrinolysis and is a complex mediator of brain function and dysfunction. tPA participates in various forms of chronic neurodegeneration, and plays a functional role following morphine administration, epileptic seizures, traumatic brain injury and ischaemic stroke-neurological settings Mus musculus
