Background-The role of plasminogen system components in focal cerebral ischemic infarction (FCI) was studied in mice deficient in plasminogen (Plg(-/-)), in tissue or urokinase plasminogen activator (tPA(-/-) or uPA(-/-)), or in plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 or alpha(2)-antiplasmin (PAI-1(-/-) or alpha(2)-AP(-/-)).Methods and Results-FCI was produced by ligation of the left middle cerebral artery and measured after 24 hours by planimetry of stained brain slices. In control (wild-type) mice, infarct size was 7.6+/-1.1 mm(3) (mean+/-SEM), uPA(-/-) mice had similar infarcts (7.8+/-1.0 mm(3), P=NS), tPA(-/-) mice smaller (2.6+/-0.80 mm(3), P
