1 Nicotine could augment adhesion molecule expression in human endothelial cells through macrophages secreting TNF-alpha, IL-1beta. Nicotine interleukin 1 beta Homo sapiens
2 The results showed TNF-alpha, IL-1beta could reach the peak with 0.06mM nicotine treated for 24 and 12 h on Ana-1, respectively, but IL-8 and IFN-gamma had no significant alter. Nicotine interleukin 1 beta Homo sapiens
3 In conclusion, our findings suggest that nicotine could augment macrophages releasing TNF-alpha and IL-1beta, furthermore TNF-alpha and IL-1beta could up-regulate the expression of adhesion molecule and increase adhesion of monocytes to HUVECs. Nicotine interleukin 1 beta Homo sapiens
