Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) activity of the visual cortex during postnatal development

Histograms show tPA activity measured as a function of the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin by tPA. Each bar represents the mean±SD (n=9). tPA activity is highest at PW3, and then declines at later developmental stages with the lowest value at PW14. Values at PW14 were significantly lower compared to all other ages (p<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Developmental profile of tissue plasminogen activator in postnatal Long Evans rat visual cortex"</p><p></p><p>Molecular Vision 2008;14():975-982.</p><p>Published online 28 May 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2405812.</p><p>
