Adhesion of Monocytes to Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1-Transduced Human Endothelial Cells: Implications for Atherogenesis

To study the role of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in monocyte recruitment and atherogenesis, we constructed a recombinant adenovirus, AdRSVrVCAM-1, carrying the rabbit VCAM-1 cDNA. We have previously shown that AdRSVrVCAM-1-transduced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) sup...

Zusammenfassung:To study the role of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in monocyte recruitment and atherogenesis, we constructed a recombinant adenovirus, AdRSVrVCAM-1, carrying the rabbit VCAM-1 cDNA. We have previously shown that AdRSVrVCAM-1-transduced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) support the adhesion of CD4 CD45RO memory T lymphocytes under laminar flow conditions. We now demonstrate that AdRSVrVCAM-1-transduced HUVECs support the adhesion of peripheral blood monocytes at a shear stress of
