Fibrin deposition and dissolution. (a) Transcripts of genes known to be involved in the coagulation cascade (intrinsic and extrinsic pathways) were selected from the filtered dataset. Data were selected that showed a 2.5-fold change or greater in at least three arrays. (b) Protein levels of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) in blood plasma, as determined by ELISA. (c and d) Transcript levels of uPA (c) and uPA receptor (uPAR) (d).
