Enzyme found in the urine of mammals, including man, and of other vertebrates; it is elaborated by the parenchymal cells of the human kidney and functions as a plasminogen activator. It is used as a thrombolytic(fibrinolytic) agent. 2, record 4, English, - urokinase
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Plasmin is derived from plasminogen, an inert protein precursor that can be activated by tissue factors (called lysokinases) or by contact through factor XII. An activator, urokinase, is also released by blood-vessel lining and is present in normal urine. Certain bacteria produce plasminogen activators, the streptococci being the most potent. Plasmin is rapidly destroyed in the bloodstream and normally acts only when taken up by ribrin. 3, record 4, English, - urokinase

Un groupe de 43 malades ayant subi une substitution valvulaire sous CEC a servi à l'établissement des modifications enzymatiques normales après chirurgie cardiaque; une différence est trouvée entre les cas sans complications myocardiques évidentes et 2 cas avec altérations de QRS indiquant l'infarctus myocardique transpariétal postopératoire. Un autre groupe de 63 malades opérés de dérivation aorto-coronarienne comporte 6 cas d'infarctus postopératoire, avec élévation enzymatique marquée, et 46 cas sans signes d'infarctus ni élévation enzymatique. Dans 11 autres cas des élévations enzymatiques sans signes évidents de lésion myocardique sont discutés. 2, record 5, French, - infarctus%20avec%20%C3%A9l%C3%A9vation%20enzymatique
