PAI-1
Based on 1 Customer Validation
PAI-1 is a serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN). PAI-1 binds to and irreversibly inhibits uPA, tPA and furin; it also interacts with vitronectin, α1-acid glycoprotein, CRT, TLR4, proteasome α-3 subunit, uPAR, LRP1, Integrin αvβ3 and thrombin. PAI-1 regulates fibrinolysis, extracellular matrix turnover, cell migration, angiogenesis, inflammatory response and tissue remodeling; it mediates epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)/endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT), apoptosis and thrombus stabilization. PAI-1 can be used in research related to sepsis, acute lung injury, cardiovascular diseases, tissue fibrosis, diabetic nephropathy, obstructive nephropathy and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

In Vitro
Rabbit anti-PAI-1 antibodies (1 μg/mL; 90 min) significantly enhance phagocytosis of viable wild-type mouse bone marrow neutrophils by mouse peritoneal macrophages, a PAI-1-dependent effect[1].
Mouse recombinant PAI-1 (1 μg/mL; 90 min) inhibits the enhanced phagocytosis of viable wild-type mouse bone marrow neutrophils by mouse peritoneal macrophages induced by CD47 blockade[1].
Mouse recombinant PAI-1 (1 μg/mL) reduces elevated surface calreticulin levels on viable PAI-1-/- mouse bone marrow neutrophils to wild-type levels[1].
PAI-1 controls collagen levels, a key profibrotic marker, in human keloid-derived skin fibroblasts, with overexpression increasing collagen accumulation and depletion reducing it[3].
PAI-1 (5 μg; 2 h at 4°C) and Guanidine hydrochloride (HY-B0178A)-activated PAI-1 (4 M; 2 h at 20°C pre-treatment) bind to Heparin (HY-17567)-Sepharose at pH 7.4, with non-activated PAI-1 exhibiting a sharper elution profile at higher Na+Cl− concentrations than activated PAI-1[5].
PAI-1 has binding to heparin-Sepharose competed by soluble heparin and low molecular weight heparin, with soluble heparin exhibiting ~10-fold higher affinity for PAI-1 than low molecular weight heparin, as indicated by IC50 values of 7.0 μM and 73 μM, respectively[5].
PAI-1 (5 nM; 1 h at 37°C) has heparin dose-dependently mediate inhibition of α-thrombin, with maximal inhibition at 1 unit/mL heparin and a corresponding second-order association rate constant of 1.0 × 105 M-1s-1[5].
PAI-1 (7 nM; 1 h at 37°C) has heparin dose-dependently promote the formation of SDS-stable complexes with human α-thrombin, with maximal complex formation occurring at 1 unit/mL heparin[5].
PAI-1 potently inhibits the enzymatic activity of free tPA, reducing its activity by 82% when used at equivalent molar amounts[9].

In Vivo:
Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
