Anistreplase

Identification

Summary

Anistreplase is a form of recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator used in the emergency treatment of myocardial infarction and pulmonary emboli.

Generic Name
Anistreplase
DrugBank Accession Number
DB00029
Background

Human tissue plasminogen activator, purified, glycosylated, 527 residues purified from CHO cells. Eminase is a lyophilized (freeze-dried) formulation of anistreplase, the p-anisoyl derivative of the primary Lys-plasminogen-streptokinase activator complex (a complex of Lys-plasminogen and streptokinase). A p-anisoyl group is chemically conjugated to a complex of bacterial-derived streptokinase and human Plasma-derived Lys-plasminogen proteins.

Pharmacodynamics

Anistreplase cleaves the Arg/Val bond in plasminogen to form plasmin. Plasmin in turn degrades the fibrin matrix of the thrombus, thereby exerting its thrombolytic action. This helps eliminate blood clots or arterial blockages that cause myocardial infarction.

Mechanism of action

Anistreplase cleaves the Arg/Val bond in plasminogen to form plasmin. This in turn leads to the degradation of blood clots.

Curator comments
Anistreplase increases fibrinopeptide A, which is one of the chains that fibrinogen alpha chain is cleaved into -- thus it is possible that anistreplase plays a role in cleavage.
General Function
Structural molecule activity
Specific Function
Cleaved by the protease thrombin to yield monomers which, together with fibrinogen beta (FGB) and fibrinogen gamma (FGG), polymerize to form an insoluble fibrin matrix. Fibrin has a major function ...
