1 OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of niacin on lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC)-induced intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and gained insight to the mechanisms. Niacin intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Homo sapiens
2 OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of niacin on lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC)-induced intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and gained insight to the mechanisms. Niacin intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Homo sapiens
3 Compared with the LPC 8 h, niacin reduced LPC-induced ICAM-1 mRNA expression (3.85 +- 0.14), and showed a dose-dependent manner (F = 8.06, P < 0.01), while SB203580 could not effectively reduce the ICAM-1 mRNA (8.09 +- 0.11). Niacin intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Homo sapiens
4 Compared with the LPC 8 h, niacin reduced LPC-induced ICAM-1 mRNA expression (3.85 +- 0.14), and showed a dose-dependent manner (F = 8.06, P < 0.01), while SB203580 could not effectively reduce the ICAM-1 mRNA (8.09 +- 0.11). Niacin intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Homo sapiens
5 CONCLUSION: Niacin prevented LPC-induced endothelial dysfunction by reducing expression of ICAM-1. Niacin intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Homo sapiens
