Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is a multifaceted, GPI-anchored three-domain protein. Release of the receptor results in variable levels of soluble uPAR (suPAR) in the blood circulation. suPAR levels have been linked to many disease states. In this mini-review, we discuss suPAR as a key circulating molecule mediating kidney disease with a particular focus on differently spliced isoforms.
尿激酶型纤溶酶原激活物受体(uPAR)是一种多面的、糖基磷脂酰肌醇锚定的三结构域蛋白。该受体的释放导致血液循环中可溶性uPAR(suPAR)水平的变化。suPAR水平与多种疾病状态相关。在这篇小型综述中,我们将讨论suPAR作为介导肾脏疾病的关键循环分子,特别关注不同剪接异构体。
