Reduced fibrinolytic activity is associated with adverse cardiovascular events. Although insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) was recently identified as the angiotensin (Ang) IV receptor (AT4R), the impact of AngIV-AT4R signaling distal to AngII on the activation of type-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) in the fibrinolytic process and subsequent formation of thrombosis remains unclarified.
