Protein kinase C beta mediates CD40 ligand-induced adhesion of monocytes to endothelial cells.

Accumulating evidence supports the early involvement of monocyte/macrophage recruitment to activated endothelial cells by leukocyte adhesion molecules during atherogenesis. CD40 and its ligand CD40L are highly expressed in vascular endothelial cells, but its impact on monocyte adhesion and the relat...
