Normal liver actually possesses a high vascular plasminogen activator activity

  • Published:
Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Blood vessels isolated from the liver of the rat, guinea-pig, rabbit, dog and pig showed histochemically a more or less high plasminogen activator activity. In whole liver sections, the abundant release and diffusion of inhibitors of fibrinolysis from the liver parenchyma during the histochemical procedure, partially or totally mask this high vascular activity.
