Glaucoma is associated with plasmin proteolytic activation mediated through oxidative inactivation of neuroserpin

Abstract Neuroserpin is a serine protease inhibitor that regulates the activity of plasmin and its activators in the neuronal tissues. This study provides novel evidence of regulatory effect of the neuroserpin on plasmin proteolytic activity in the retina in glaucoma. Human retinal and vitreous tiss...
