Immunoreactivity of the different endothelial cells (HUVEC, HMEC-1, and HMVEC-d), fibroblasts (Fibro), smooth muscle cells (SMC), and blood monocytes (Mono) with anti-vWF, anti-PECAM (CD31), anti-SMC α actin, anti-fibroblast (anti–prolyl-4-hydroxylase), and anti-CD14 (monocyte marker). The MFIs recorded when cells were positively stained are given in the corresponding Result section.
