Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is the key endogenous inhibitor of fibrinolysis, and enhances clot formation after injury. In traumatic brain injury, dysregulation of fibrinolysis may lead to sustained microthrombosis and accelerated lesion expansion. In the present study, we hypothesized that PAI-1 mediates post-traumatic malfunction of coagulation, with inhibition or genetic depletion of PAI-1 attenuating clot formation and lesion expansion after brain trauma.
