Abstract

The activation of the fibrinolytic system occurs when plasminogen is converted into plasmin by plasminogen activators (PA) such as tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA). Inhibition of the fibrinolytic system may occur through inhibition of these plasminogen activators by plasminogen activator inhibitors (PAIs) or through inhibition of plasmin by α2-antiplasmin. In this chapter, the PAIs are discussed. The two most important PAIs are PAI-1 and PAI-2 (Loskutoff et al., 1983; Lecander and Astedt, 1986). In urine, a complex of u-PA and an inhibitor was found and, therefore, this inhibitor was named PAI-3, which was subsequently found to be identical to the protein C inhibitor (PCI) (Stump et al., 1986; Heeb et al., 1987).
