Composition

1 ampoule contains:

Active substance: Recombinant prourokinase 5000 IU.

Packaging

Pharmacological action

Hemase-fibrinolytic-recombinant urokinase-type plasminogen activator. It is a recombinant prourokinase (RPU) and catalyzes the conversion of plasminogen into plasmin, which is able to lyse fibrin clots.

The specificity of the action of RPU is based on the fact that it mainly activates the fibrin-bound plasminogen, which has a different conformation compared to the circulating plasminogen in the bloodstream, in the plasma, and in the region of the fibrin clot is not sensitive to specific inhibitors present in the blood plasma.

Single-chain molecule RPU under the influence of plasmin turns into a double-chain molecule, which, unlike single-chain proforma is much more active against fibrin-bound plasminogen. A "chain reaction" of the interaction of the RPU with the fibrin-bound plasminogen is formed, as a result of which the fibrin clot is destroyed. Specific enzymatic activity of the drug "Hemase" from 4500 to 5500 IU in the ampoule.
