In this study, the effect of low density lipoproteins (LDL) on the ability of the vascular endothelium to respond to vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) activation by a cytokine was investigated. After a 4-day pre-exposure to 240 mg/dl of LDL, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were hyperresponsive to minute amounts of interleukin 1α (IL-1α) as demonstrated by an augmentation of...
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is a well-established risk factor for atherosclerosis. When endothelial cells are incubated with this lipoprotein in pathophysiologic amounts, the cells are activated. Among the documented cellular responses to LDL is increased recruitment of monocytes, which are believed to play a major role in promoting intimal plaque formation. The findings presented here link an...
