It is a central player in the plasminogen activation pathway. uPAR binds with high affinity to a serine protease urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and converts plasminogen to its active form plasmin in a spatially restricted manner on the cell surface (4). Plasmin further carries out the activation of uPA, which is inhibited by serpins, such as plasminogen activator inhibitors (5). Therefore, uPAR plays a key role in regulating extracellular proteolysis. In addition, uPAR plays an important role in regulating cell proliferation, adhesion and mobility (6,7). Research studies have shown that overexpression of uPAR is found in various cancer cells and tissues (8,9).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCD87; MO3; Monocyte activation antigen Mo3; plasminogen activator, urokinase receptor; PLAUR; U-PAR; u-plasminogen activator receptor form 2; UPAR; URKR; Urokinase plasminogen activator surface receptor; urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) receptor\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 35-65\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797577683113,"sku":"12713S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-12713s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
