title: Effects of epsilon-aminocaproiloaminoacids on the amidolytic activity of tissue plasminogen activator, urokinase and kallikrein.
abstract: Effect of three epsilon-aminocaproylaminoacids with a significant antifibrinolytic activity on amidolytic activity of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), urokinase and kallikrein was examined. epsilon-Aminocaproyl-S-benzyl)-L-cysteine and epsilon-aminocaproyl-L-norleucine were weak inhibitors of kallikrein. Weak activation of t-PA activity was observed at high concentration of the tested compounds. Only one of the examined dipeptides was a weak inhibitor of amidolytic activity of urokinase.
