PAI-1 Signaling Pathway Assay (CAT#: STEM-MB-0375-WXH)

Introduction

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is the main physiological inhibitor of endogenous plasminogen activator (pa) and is an important active substance in the exogenous activation pathway of the fibrinolytic system and the most important regulator of fibrinolytic activity in vivo. It has been associated with a variety of human diseases and is involved in many cardiovascular risk factors.




Principle

The PAI-1 signaling pathway plays an important role in regulating the LPS-induced inflammatory response in alveolar macrophages.PAI-1 signaling may promote the expression and activation of TLR4-MD-2/MyD88/NF-KB signaling pathway to exaggerate lung inflammation in vitro. Inhibition of PAI-1 may lead to novel therapeutic approaches against bacterial or LPS-induced lung inflammation.PAI-1 knockdown reduced NF-KB p65 expression after LPS stimulation, whereas PAI-1 overexpression showed the opposite result. It indicates that in the LPS-induced inflammatory response, PAI-1 promotes inflammation through the TLR4/NF-KB pathway in vitro, whereas deletion of PAI-1 resulted in decreased TLR4/NF-KB pathway activity and reduced inflammation.
