Regulation of autotaxin expression and secretion by lysophosphatidate and sphingosine 1-phosphate
Download2015
Zhao, Yuan Y., McMullen,Todd P. W. , Brindley, David N., Curtis, Jonathan M., Benesch, Matthew G. K.
Autotaxin (ATX) is a secreted enzyme, which produces extracellular lysophosphatidate (LPA) from lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC). LPA activates six G protein-coupled receptors and this is essential for vasculogenesis during embryonic development. ATX is also involved in wound healing and...

Revisiting the antifibrinolytic effect of carboxypeptidase N: novel structure and regulation
DownloadFall 2010
Carboxypeptidase N (CPN) is a plasma carboxypeptidase that was discovered in the 1960s as a regulator of inflammation and vascular tone. Through the removal of carboxy-terminal basic residues, CPN alters the activity or binding specificity of inflammatory mediators and vasoactive peptides. CPN...
