Tissue factor mRNA in THP-1 monocytic cells is regulated at both transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels in response to lipopolysaccharide.
1 Sept 1991
Abstract excerpt
Tissue factor (TF) is transiently expressed in human monocytes exposed to the inflammatory agonist bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Since TF is the major cellular initiator of the coagulation protease cascades, it is inferred that its expression within the vasculature is strictly regulated. In this study, we investigated mechanisms which control TF mRNA expression in the human monocytic cell line THP-1. LPS...
