Abstract
Approximately 35 years ago, it was discovered that spontaneous fibrinolytic activity in blood showed a sinusoidal variation with a period of 24 h; it increased severalfold during the day, reaching a peak at 6:00 p.m. and then dropped to trough levels at 3:00-4:00 a.m. The range of the fluctuation and the 24-h mean levels were highly reproducible within an individual; moreover, the timing of the oscillation was remarkably consistent among individuals, with a fixed phase relationship to external clock time. The biorhythm could not be accounted for simply by variations in physical activity, body posture, or sleep/wake schedule. Gender, ethnic origin, meals, or resting levels of blood fibrinolytic activity also did not influence the basic features of the rhythm. Older subjects, compared to younger ones, showed a blunted diurnal increase in fibrinolytic activity in blood. Recent studies have established that, of the known components of the fibrinolytic system, only tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) and its fast-acting inhibitor, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), show a marked circadian variation in plasma. In contrast, levels of plasminogen, alpha 2-antiplasmin, urinary-type plasminogen activator, and a reversible tPA inhibitor vary little or none during the 24 h. Quenching antibodies to tPA have shown that the circadian rhythm of fibrinolytic activity in blood is due exclusively to changes in tPA activity. However, the 24-h fluctuation of plasma tPA activity is phase shifted in relation to the rhythm of immunoreactive tPA, but shows a precise phase inversion with respect to the 24-h variation of PAI-1 activity and antigen. Therefore, plasma tPA activity, as currently measured in vitro, is tightly and inversely related to the levels of PAI-1 throughout the 24-h cycle. The factors controlling the rhythmicity of plasma PAI-1 are not fully elucidated but probably involve a humoral mechanism; changes in endothelial function, circulating platelet release products, corticosteroids, catecholamines, insulin, activated protein C, or hepatic clearance do not appear to be responsible. Shift workers on weekly shift rotations show a disrupted 24-h rhythm of plasma tPA and PAI-1. In acute and chronic diseases, the circadian rhythmicity of fibrinolytic activity may show a variety of alterations, affecting the 24-h mean, the amplitude, or the timing of the fluctuation. It is advisable, therefore to define the 24-h pattern of plasma tPA and PAI-1 in patient groups, before levels based on a single blood sampling time are compared to those of a control population.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The effects of early coronary recanalization on the plasma levels of two procoagulant acute phase proteins, the fastacting plasminogen activator inhibitor and von Willebrand factor, were investigated in 24 patients with myocardial infarction receiving intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) within 6 h of the onset of symptoms. Coronary angiography was performed before and 90 min after the start of rt-PA infusion. Continuous electrocardiographic recordings and 4 h plasma creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CK MB) were performed over the first 24 h. Plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor activity, von Willebrand factor and C-reactive protein were measured before rt-PA infusion, daily for the first 3 days and after 90 days. In the entire group, plasminogen activator inhibitor activity peaked at 24 h (day 1), representing a significant increase over values at all other times (p = 0.03). von Willebrand factor was higher in the first 2 days of infarction compared with after 90 days (p = 0.001). C-reactive protein peaked on day 2, with an eightfold increase over values on admission (p = 0.001). In the 16 patients with a patent infarct-related artery at 90 min, infarct size estimated by integrated 24 h CK MB, time for ST segment elevation to decrease to half-maximum and peak C-reactive protein were reduced significantly by more than twofold compared with values in the 8 patients with an occluded artery at 90 min. The patients with early recanalization also had lower plasminogen activator inhibitor activity on day 2 (p = 0.05) and day 3 (p = 0.02) and lower 0 to 72 h averaged von Willebrand factor (p = 0.01). Thus, early coronary recanalization curtails the response of plasminogen activator inhibitor activity and von Willebrand factor to myocardial infarction, most likely by reducing the extent of ischemia and necrosis and the consequent acute phase reaction. By blunting the early postinfarction procoagulant state, prompt recanalization may reduce the risk of thromboembolic complications in the first days after myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Hyperacute rejection, apparently initiated by natural antibodies and complement, has been viewed as an absolute barrier to the xenotransplantation of vascularized grafts between different species. Until recently, little was known about the molecular and physiological basis for this barrier nor was there evidence that the barrier might be more than transiently breached. In this paper Jeffrey Platt, Fritz Bach and colleagues describe a model of hyperacute rejection and propose that, if hyperacute rejection can be averted for a period after transplantation, prolonged xenograft survival will be possible.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is a multifunctional mediator with effects on cellular growth, differentiation, and extracellular matrix (ECM) metabolism. Because TGF-beta stimulates fibronectin expression in cultured human keratinocytes, we wished to determine whether it might also affect ECM degradation through the plasminogen activator (PA)-plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) system. Immunofluorescence of human keratinocytes using a monospecific antiserum to type 1 PAI (PAI-1) showed enhanced cellular and ECM staining when they were cultured in the presence of TGF-beta. The antiserum also identified an Mr 50,000 protein in conditioned media that was markedly enhanced by TGF-beta. A corresponding stimulation of PAI-1 mRNA was demonstrated by quantitative RNA blot analysis. Total plasminogen activating activity of conditioned medium was markedly decreased by TGF-beta. Zymography showed this to be at least partially due to decreased secreted urokinase activity. TGF-beta may play an important role in stabilizing the provisional matrix synthesized by keratinocytes in healing wounds.

Abstract
Specific binding of leukemia-inhibitory factor (LIF) to osteoblasts, but not multinucleated osteoclasts, was demonstrated by receptor autoradiography by using cells isolated from newborn rat long bones. The clonal rat osteogenic sarcoma cells, UMR 106-06, which have several phenotypic properties of osteoblasts, expressed 300 LIF receptors per cell, with an apparent KD of 60 pM. Treatment of calvarial osteoblasts or UMR 106-01 cells with LIF resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of plasminogen activator (PA) activity. Both calvarial osteoblasts and osteogenic sarcoma cells were shown by Western blotting and reverse fibrin autography to produce plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), the production of which was increased by LIF treatment. Northern blot analysis revealed that LIF treatment resulted in a rapid (peak 1 hour), dose-dependent increase in mRNA for PAI-1. LIF treatment of the preosteoblast cell line, UMR 201, enhanced the alkaline phosphatase response of these cells to retinoic acid. Each of the osteoblast-like cell types (calvarial osteoblasts, UMR 106-06, and UMR 201) was shown to produce LIF by bioassay and, by using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), was shown to express low levels of mRNA for LIF. These data establish that cells of the osteoblast lineage are targets for LIF action. The reported anabolic effects of this cytokine on bone formation in vivo could be related to inhibition of protease activity. LIF may be an important paracrine modulator in bone, or perhaps an autocrine one, based on the evidence for its production by osteoblasts and osteoblast-like cells.

Abstract
The proliferative potential of human diploid endothelial cells is finite, and cellular senescence in vitro is accompanied by the failure of the endothelial cell to respond to exogenous growth factors. Senescent human endothelial cells were shown to contain high amounts of the transcript for the cytokine interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha), a potent inhibitor of endothelial cell proliferation in vitro. In contrast, transformed human endothelial cells did not contain detectable IL-1 alpha messenger RNA. Treatment of human endothelial cell populations with an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide to the human IL-1 alpha transcript prevented cell senescence and extended the proliferative life-span of the cells in vitro. Removal of the IL-1 alpha antisense oligomer resulted in the generation of the senescent phenotype and loss of proliferative potential. These data suggest that human endothelial cell senescence in vitro is a dynamic process regulated by the potential intracellular activity of IL-1 alpha.

Abstract
Cytokines are known to tip the balance of the coagulant-anticoagulant molecules on the endothelial cell surface toward intravascular coagulation. Their effects on endothelial cell surface-associated heparin-like compounds have not been examined yet. Incorporation of [35S]sulfate into heparan sulfate on cultured porcine aortic endothelial cells was suppressed by human recombinant interleukin-1 beta (rIL-1 beta) or tumor necrosis factor alpha (rTNF alpha) in a dose- and time-dependent manner with little effect on cell number, protein content, and [3H]leucine incorporation of cells. Maximal inhibition was achieved by incubation of cells with 100 ng/ml of rIL-1 beta or 5 ng/ml of rTNF alpha for 12-24 hours, resulting in a reduction of the synthesis of heparan sulfate on the cell surface by approximately 50%. The dose dependency was consistent with that seen in the stimulation of endothelial cell procoagulant activity by each cytokine. The suppression of heparan sulfate synthesis was sustained for at least 48 hours after pretreatment of cells with cytokines and was unchanged after the addition of indomethacin or polymyxin B. The rate of degradation of prelabeled 35S-heparan sulfate on the cell surface was not altered by cytokine treatments. Neither the size, the net negative charge, nor the proportion of the molecule with high affinity for antithrombin III of endothelial cell heparan sulfate was changed by cytokines. Furthermore, specific binding of 125I-labeled antithrombin III to the endothelial cell surface was reduced to 40-60% of control by cytokines. In parallel with reduction in binding, antithrombin III cofactor (heparin-like) activity was partially diminished in cytokine-treated endothelial cells. Thus, cytokine-mediated suppression of heparin-like substance on endothelial cells appears to be another cytokine-inducible endothelial effects affecting coagulation.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induces the synthesis of two proteins of Mr 42 and 36 kDa in human fibroblasts and SK-MEL-109 melanoma cells. To identify these proteins, a lambda gt10 cDNA library was prepared from the mRNA of TNF-treated SK-MEL-109 cells. By screening this library, we found a cDNA that preferentially hybridized to TNF-induced RNA. Hybrid-selected mRNA was translated into a protein of 42 kDa; cDNA sequence analysis followed by a comparison with other known protein sequences identified this protein with plasminogen activator inhibitor, type-2 (PAI-2). After removal of TNF, PAI-2 mRNA turned over rapidly, with an apparent half-life of approximately 2.5 h. Addition of dexamethasone increased the turnover of this mRNA, suggesting that the level of PAI-2 mRNA could be regulated post-transcriptionally by glucocorticoids. PAI-2 was not secreted, but accumulated in fibroblasts continuously treated with TNF.

Abstract
In this paper the following findings were described: 1) Murine arteriosclerosis induced by immune challenge was ultrastructurally characterized by intimal monocyte-macrophage recruitment and minor endothelial alterations; 2) Atherosclerotic lesions of human coronary arteries exhibited frequently segmental or patchy neovascularization, probably representing a response to intimal injury as an example of repair process. Newly formed blood vessels in the intima were derived from both adventitial and luminal endothelial growth; 3) Angiogenesis in vitro was related to the activation of fibrinolytic system especially via the autocrine production of u-PA from endothelial cells, and this process was modulated by cytokines and TGF beta. These findings add more evidence for the hypothesis that the chronic inflammation-repair process plays an essential role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
We have investigated whether lymphatic endothelial cells in culture produce plasminogen activators (PAs) and their inhibitors (PAIs) and if these activities can be modulated by the inflammatory cytokine Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-alpha). Examination by reverse fibrin autography of the conditioned medium from these cells revealed a PAI of Mr 50 kDa. Also evident by fibrin autography were two species of PAs, of Mr 110 kDa and Mr 60 kDa. The 110 kDa protein co-migrated with the PA-PAI complexes and the 60 kDa protein co-migrated with tissue Plasminogen Activator (tPA). Functional and immunological assays indicated the human TNF-alpha increased the type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) in a time dependent manner. Treatment of the cells with recombinant human TNF-alpha for 24 hours resulted in a 3 to 7 fold increase in the amount of PAI released into the conditioned media. Immunoblot analysis identified the PAI in the TNF-alpha treated cell conditioned media, as PAI-1. Deposition of PAI-1 in the extracellular matrix then became apparent. TNF-alpha increased 4 fold the amount of tPA-PAI-1 complexes (Mr 110 kDa) detected in the conditioned media. Free tPA (Mr 60 kDa) decreased to 1/5 of control. Net fibrinolytic activity, as determined by a chromogenic substrate assay, decreased after TNF-alpha treatment. No urokinase type Plasminogen Activator (uPA) activity was detected in control or treated cells. This fibrinolytic activity may be important in maintaining free fluid movement in the interstitium and lymphatic vessels and in inflammatory states this potential may be decreased by the increase in PAI-1.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor has been implicated in the activation of blood coagulation in septicemia, a condition commonly associated with intravascular coagulation and disturbances of hemostasis. To evaluate the early dynamics and the route of the in vivo coagulative response to tumor necrosis factor, we performed a controlled study in six healthy men, monitoring the activation of the common and intrinsic pathways of coagulation with highly sensitive and specific radioimmunoassays. Recombinant human tumor necrosis factor, administered as an intravenous bolus injection (50 micrograms per square meter of body-surface area), induced an early and short-lived rise in circulating levels of the activation peptide of factor X, reaching maximal values after 30 to 45 minutes (mean +/- SEM increase after 45 minutes, 34.2 +/- 18.2 percent; tumor necrosis factor vs. saline, P = 0.015). This was followed by a gradual and prolonged increase in the plasma concentration of the prothrombin fragment F1+2, peaking after four to five hours (mean increase after five hours, 348.0 +/- 144.8 percent; tumor necrosis factor vs. saline, P less than 0.0001). These findings signify the formation of factor Xa (activated factor X) and the activation of prothrombin. Activation of the intrinsic pathway could not be detected by a series of measurements of the plasma levels of factor XII, prekallikrein, factor XIIa-C1 inhibitor complexes, kallikrein-C1 inhibitor complexes, and the activation peptide of factor IX. The delay between the maximal activation of factor X and that of prothrombin amounted to several hours, indicating that neutralization of factor Xa activity was slow. We conclude that a single injection of tumor necrosis factor elicits a rapid and sustained activation of the common pathway of coagulation, probably induced through the extrinsic route. Our results suggest that tumor necrosis factor could play an important part in the early activation of the hemostatic mechanism in septicemia.

Abstract
Fluid shear stress can stimulate secretion of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) by cultured human endothelial cells, while plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 secretion remains unstimulated. To determine whether hemodynamically induced changes in tPA messenger RNA (mRNA) levels also occur, primary cultures from the same harvest of primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells were either maintained in stationary culture or exposed to arterial levels of shear stress (25 dynes/cm2) for 24 hours. Total cellular RNA was isolated from the shear stressed and stationary cultures and the relative levels of tPA mRNA and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) mRNA were determined using a coupled reverse transcriptase/polymerase chain reaction method. As indicated by the amount of amplification product, tPA mRNA levels were many fold higher (greater than 10) in endothelial cells subjected to shear stress for 24 hours than in stationary controls. In contrast, mRNA levels for GAPDH were similar in control and shear stressed cells. The constancy of the measured GAPDH signal indicated that the tPA response was a selective effect of fluid shear stress. When a similar polymerase chain reaction method was used, the mRNA levels of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) were found not to vary in comparison to GAPDH mRNA after 24 hours of shear stress. These results indicate that enhancement of the fibrinolytic potential of endothelial cells in response to hemodynamic forces could involve transcriptional events.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a secretory product of normal macrophages that can cause cell necrosis, new blood vessel formation and thrombosis. These are also 3 characteristic features of the progression of stable atheroma to endothelial disruption. Accordingly, an immunohistochemical method was developed to detect TNF in human tissue. Using this method TNF positivity was demonstrated in 57 of 65 (88%) of tissue sections classified as atherosclerotic and in 5 of 11 (45%) sections classified as minimally atherosclerotic. TNF was absent in 6 sections classified as normal. TNF positivity was found not only in the cytoplasm of macrophages, but also in the cytoplasm and attached to the cell membrane of smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells of the human atheroma. Because TNF is known to cause new vessel formation, hemorrhagic necrosis and increased thrombogenicity, it may play a role in the evolution of uncomplicated to complex atheroma.

Abstract
Astroglial cells are known to proliferate during development of the nervous system, as well as during post-traumatic gliosis. We have previously shown that the proliferation of cultured astrocytes can be stimulated by the urokinase-type (uPA) of plasminogen activator (PA) and that astrocytes are able to release such uPA upon stimulation with basic fibroblast growth factor, which is known to act as a mitogen for these cells. Here we report studies on the effects of human interleukin-1 (IL-1) on the release of PA activity by cultured newborn rat astroglial cells. Whereas there is controversy in the literature as to whether IL-1 stimulates multiplication of astroglial cells, we failed to observe such an effect in our system. We did observe, however, a dose-dependent decrease in PA activity in the supernatant of the IL-1 treated cultures. Further analysis revealed that this apparent decrease in PA release was in fact due to an increased release of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI). A similar IL-1 induced increase in PAI release was also found to occur in cultures of transformed astrocytes (human glioma LN18) and in cultured Schwann cells, but not in cultures of neurons or neuronal tumour cells. Since protease inhibitors are known to possess neuritogenic properties, our results suggest that IL-1, by its capacity to induce PAI, may promote neuritogenesis.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of agents which raise intracellular levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) on the secretion of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) by cultured human umbilical-vein endothelial cells. Significant inhibition of baseline (unstimulated) t-PA and PAI-1 secretion was observed in response to several agents which, when added exogenously, cause increased intracellular cAMP: cholera toxin, 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (MIX), dibutyryl-cAMP, and prostaglandin E1. These agents also significantly reduced or abolished the previously reported stimulatory effects of thrombin and histamine on t-PA secretion, and, with the exception of MIX, significantly reduced the previously reported stimulatory effect of thrombin on PAI-1 secretion. MIX at a concentration (10 microM) below that required to inhibit t-PA and PAI-1 secretion when tested alone, significantly increased the inhibitory effects of cholera toxin, dibutyryl-cAMP, and prostaglandin E1 on both t-PA and PAI-1 secretion. The data suggest that elevated intracellular levels of cAMP inhibit both spontaneous endothelial secretion of t-PA and PAI-1, and secretion induced by agents (thrombin and histamine) which stimulate endothelial phosphoinositide metabolism, consistent with bidirectional regulation of endothelial fibrinolytic protein secretion by the adenylate cyclase and phosphoinositide signal transduction pathways. The inhibitory effects of cAMP do not appear to be specific for t-PA and PAI-1, since cholera toxin and MIX also inhibited endothelial secretion of the adhesive protein, fibronectin. Significant inhibition of baseline endothelial t-PA and PAI-1 secretion was also caused by the stable prostacyclin analogue iloprost (ZK 36 374) and by arachidonic acid, which is converted by endothelial cells to prostacyclin, suggesting that prostacyclin produced endogenously by endothelial cells may inhibit secretion of fibrinolytic proteins by increasing intracellular cAMP.

Abstract
Proteolytic enzymes play a key role in a variety of physiological processes in which the degradation of macromolecules is essential: angiogenesis, embryogenesis, bone and tissue remodelling, blood hemostasis and cell migration. The action of these enzymes is also crucial in the development of many pathological conditions such as wound healing, neoplasia, inflammation and arthritic disorders. The activity of proteases is negatively affected by specific protease-inhibitors. Various growth factors and other cytokines modulate the synthesis and secretion of both proteases and protease-inhibitors. The study of this regulation results in a better insight into (patho)physiology at the molecular level and promises to result in alternative treatment strategies.

Abstract
To evaluate the effect of endotoxin on the fibrinolytic response, we administered Escherichia coli endotoxin (4 ng per kilogram of body weight) intravenously to 19 healthy volunteers and measured fibrinolytic proteins, protease inhibitors, neutrophil elastase, and von Willebrand factor in serial blood samples obtained over 24 hours. One hour after endotoxin administration, the level of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen rose from 10 to 23 ng per milliliter, peaking at 52 ng per milliliter at three hours. The level of alpha 2-plasmin inhibitor-plasmin complexes increased sevenfold, peaking at three hours. Plasminogen-activator inhibitor-1 activity rose more slowly, from 7 U per milliliter to a maximum of 49 U per milliliter at five hours. The concentrations of neutrophil elastase and von Willebrand antigen were unchanged at one hour, increased approximately threefold by 3 hours, and remained elevated at 24 hours. None of these measures changed in a control group (n = 5) given intravenous saline instead of endotoxin. We studied t-PA functional activity in four subjects. The level of activity rose rapidly, from 1.2 ng per milliliter at base line to 8.3 ng per milliliter at one hour and 13.9 ng per milliliter at two hours; it was undetectable at three hours. This increase in plasminogen activator activity was abolished in vitro by incubation of t-PA with an antiserum specific for human t-PA, suggesting that t-PA may be directly responsible for plasmin generation in the response to endotoxin. We conclude from this study of healthy subjects that endotoxin activates the fibrinolytic system, beginning with release of t-PA in the blood within one hour. The early activation of plasmin by endotoxin may prevent thrombosis, and the increase in fibrinolysis is then offset by the release of plasminogen activator inhibitor.

Abstract
Levels of seven messenger RNA species were compared in human umbilical vein endothelial cells of different lineage and time in culture. Specifically, cells obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) and subcultured were compared to early passage cells from cultures produced in our laboratory. Messenger RNA for tissue plasminogen activator, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, urokinase, and thrombomodulin were expressed at higher levels in the ATCC cells. Thrombospondin, von Willebrand's Factor, and protein S messenger RNA were expressed at higher levels in the cells that we isolated. In addition, in the ATCC cells a shift in the proportion of plasminogen activator inhibitor messenger RNA from the 3.4 to the 2.4 kilobase species was found. We conclude that specific messenger RNA levels can vary considerably between cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells. The large variation in mRNA levels which we describe has important implications for experiments involving gene expression in cultured endothelium.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) was found to induce type-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) antigen in the human fibrosarcoma cell line HT-1080, and PAI-1 and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) antigens in the human carcinoma cell line T-CAR1; tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen was not affected or slightly decreased. The effects in HT-1080 and T-CAR1 cells were preceded by increases in the cellular levels of the corresponding mRNAs. Cycloheximide caused an increase of PAI-1 mRNA in T-CAR1 cells, but not in HT-1080 cells; during this increase the relative abundance of the two PAI-1 mRNA species, of 2.3 kb and 3.4 kb, respectively, changed strongly in favor of the longer transcript. We conclude that TNF-alpha may affect proteolytic activity in the microenvironment of cells in malignant tumors by affecting gene expression of u-PA and PAI-1.

Abstract
A cDNA encoding rat plasminogen activator-inhibitor (PAI-1) has been isolated from an HTC rat hepatoma cell cDNA library constructed in phage lambda gt10. The cDNA contains 118 bp of 5'-untranslated sequence, 1206 bp encoding a 402-amino acid (aa) protein and 1747 bp of 3'-untranslated sequence. The protein-coding sequence and the derived amino acid sequence share 82% and 81% identity, respectively, with human PAI-1 cDNA and protein. The rat cDNA encodes a preprotein with a 23-aa leader peptide and a predicted N-terminal serine for the mature protein. Three of four potential N-glycosylation acceptor sites as well as the active site of rat PAI-1 are identical to the human protein. The 3'-untranslated region contains a number of unusual regions, including 80 bp of tandemly repeated GpA dinucleotides, a 115-bp stretch which shares greater than 90% sequence identity with a region within the 3'-untranslated cDNA of human PAI-1, and two 70-bp stretches of highly T-rich sequence located close to the 3'-terminus of the cDNA.
