1 Argatroban (0.1-0.3 mg/kg/h) significantly accelerated thrombolysis by t-PA in both a dose- and time-dependent fashion. argatroban plasminogen activator, tissue type Homo sapiens
2 Although argatroban (0.1-0.2 mg/kg/h) did not significantly prolong the aPTT and bleeding time (BT) as compared with control, it significantly accelerated thrombolysis by t-PA at these doses of lower bleeding risk. argatroban plasminogen activator, tissue type Homo sapiens
3 Argatroban (0.3 mg/kg/h) significantly enhanced thrombolysis by t-PA, while UFH (12.5 anti-XaU/kg/h) attenuated it again, despite equivalent prolongation of the aPTT and BT. argatroban plasminogen activator, tissue type Homo sapiens
4 We conclude that argatroban seems to be a more efficient and safer anticoagulant than UFH for the prevention of thrombus formation and acceleration of t-PA-induced thrombolysis. argatroban plasminogen activator, tissue type Homo sapiens
