1 | Aspirin inhibits monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and interleukin-8 expression in TNF-alpha stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells. | Aspirin | C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 | Homo sapiens |
2 | In this study, we found that aspirin inhibited TNF-alpha (10 ng/ml)-induced MCP-1 and IL-8 expression at the RNA and protein levels in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), monocyte adhesion and transmigration, and that its inhibitory effects were not due to decreased HUVEC viability as assessed by MTT test. | Aspirin | C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 | Homo sapiens |
3 | Aspirin at the dose as low as 10 microg/ml significantly inhibited the release of TNF-stimulated MCP-1 by 29.1% (P = 0.008) and IL-8 by 26.9% (P = 0.0146) as compared to TNF-stimulated release. | Aspirin | C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 | Homo sapiens |
4 | These results in our study suggest that aspirin inhibits TNF-alpha stimulated MCP-1 and IL-8 release in HUVECs, for its additional therapeutic effects of aspirin in causing atherosclerosis. | Aspirin | C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 | Homo sapiens |
