Abstract:
Objective By exploring the alteration of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and tissue plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-l) in plasma in Kawasaki disease (KD) patients to identify the pathophysiological mechanism of vascular damage and to detect the relationship between fibrinolytic system function and coronary artery lesion complications in Kawasaki disease patients. Method Plasma levels of t-PA, PAI-1 antigen were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Patients with KD were grouped into acute phase group, recovery phase group patients with coronary artery lesion group and non-coronary artery lesion group. Results Plasma t-PA and PAI-1 in acute phase and recovery phase groups were significantly higher than those in the healthy group (P
