3.4.24.24 medicine endogenous urokinase plasminogen activator from cultured hepatic stellate cells significantly induces the active forms of enzyme and matrix metalloproteinase MMP-9 in cirrhotic tissue slices. Transfection of hepatic stellate cells with urokinase plasminogen activator gene results in overactivation of enzyme and matrix metalloproteinases MMP-3 and MMP-9 Rattus norvegicus

3.4.21.73 additional information functional overexpression of the enzyme in hepatic stellate cells, using an adenoviral vector system, produces downregulation of pro-fibrogenic genes involved in liver fibrosis, and results in a highly specific decrease of TGF-beta expression, and at the same time of genes such as PAI-1, TIMP-1, and collagen type I, which respond to intracellular signals generated by TGF-beta and are involved in perpetuation of fibrogenesis, it also results in upregulation of MMP-3, MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities, overview Homo sapiens
