Cultured human vascular endothelial cells acquire adhesiveness for neutrophils after stimulation with interleukin 1, endotoxin, and tumor-promoting phorbol diesters.

Cultured human vascular endothelial cells obtained from umbilical cord veins were observed to acquire adhesive properties for purified neutrophils after exposure to IL 1, endotoxin, and tumor-promoting phorbol diesters. Adhesiveness induced by IL1 and endotoxin had similar kinetics of onset, produci... View More
