Plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 (PAI‐1), a key inhibitor of plasminogen activators (PAs) tissue‐type PA (tPA) and urokinase‐type PA (uPA) plays a crucial role in many (patho)physiological processes (e.g., cardiovascular disease, tissue fibrosis) as well as in many age‐related pathologies. Therefore, much effort has been put into the development of small molecule or antibody‐based PAI‐1 inhibitors.
