Protein C activation peptide inhibits the expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and interleukin-8 induced by TNF-a in human dermal microvascular endothelial cells Protein C activation peptide inhibits the expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and interleukin-8 induced by TNF-a in human dermal microvascular endothelial cells

Activated protein C (APC) is generated from the cleavage of protein C by thrombin coupled to thrombomodulin<br />and, subsequently, is released as protein C activation peptide (papC). The aim of this study was to<br />evaluate the effect of papC on human dermal microvascu...
