Inhibition of ulinastatin on plasmin expression. Horizontal ordinate: (a) control group without reagents; (b) low-dose ulinastatin (L-UTI) group, 800 U/mL ulinastatin; (c) high-dose ulinastatin (H-UTI) group, 8000 U/mL ulinastatin; (d) IL-1α (10 ng/mL) + plasminogen group (10 μg/mL); (e) IL-1α (10 ng/mL) + plasminogen (10 μg/mL) + L-UTI group (800 U/mL); (f) IL-1α (10 ng/mL) + plasminogen (10 μg/mL) + L-UTI group (8000 U/mL). Longitudinal coordinate: plasmin level (pg/mL).
