About this item
Tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) is a serine protease that cleaves pro-enzyme plasminogen into active plasmin
The SensoLyte® AMC tPA Activity Assay Kit is optimized for assaying tPA enzyme activities. This kit contains a fluorogenic substrate with a high reactivity and low background. tPA cleaves the substrate resulting in release of AMC (7-amino-4-methylcoumarin) fluorophore. Fluorescence can be monitored at excitation /emission= 354/442 nm. This kit can be used for high throughput screening of tPA inducers and inhibitors.
It has been recognized that tPA play important roles in various physiological and pathological processes. In plasma, it functions as a thrombolytic enzyme and can be used for treatment of ischemic stroke. In the central nervous system, tPA promotes events associated with synaptic plasticity and cell death in a number of settings, such as cerebral ischemia and seizures.
