Brain Tumors and Plasmin Inhibitors

Abstract
Four different intracranial neoplasms inhibited purified plasmin in an in vitro assay. The greatest inhibition (80%) was observed with extracts of a parasagittal meningioma that had invaded and completely occluded the sinus. Significant inhibition (>40%) was also observed with extracts prepared from a glioma surgically removed from a patient who had suffered three thromboembolic episodes during the preceding several months.
