| Abstract | Fibrin/agar films were prepared and used to detect plasminogen activators produced by cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (fibrin autography). One preparation of fibrin underwent spontaneous lysis upon incubation at 37 degrees C. This lysis was prevented by antibodies to tissue-type plasminogen activator but not by antibodies to urokinase. Conditioned medium from the confluent endothelial cells was fractionated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of NaDodSO4. The gels were analyzed on indicator films prepared with the spontaneously lysing fibrin (reverse fibrin autography). Unexpectedly, as the opaque fibrin film cleared, a distinct lysis-resistant zone appeared in the indicator gel at a region corresponding to Mr 55,000. Experiments were devised to determine whether the lysis-resistant zone in the indicator film reflected the presence of a cellular inhibitor in the polyacrylamide gel. The corresponding region was excised from a polyacrylamide gel, extracted with buffer, and tested directly for antifibrinolytic activity by the 125I-labeled fibrin plate method. Urokinase-mediated fibrinolytic activity was inhibited by the gel extract in a dose-dependent manner indicating the presence of such an inhibitor. Inhibitor activity was detected in Triton X-100 extracts of washed monolayers and in conditioned medium, where it accumulated with time. The endothelial cell inhibitor not only survived exposure to NaDodSO4 but also was active after incubation at pH 12 or treatment with 5% (vol/vol) 2-mercaptoethanol, 6 M urea, 4 M guanidine hydrochloride, or 1 M acetic acid. Considerable activity also remained after heating at 100 degrees C for 30 min. These results indicate that cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells synthesize and secrete a previously undetected, unusually stable fibrinolytic inhibitor of Mr 55,000. Reverse fibrin autography offers a convenient approach for studying such molecules. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
