Effects of oleic acid on hypoxia-induced sickle RBC adherence (A) and VCAM-1 expression (B) on HUVECs. Endothelial cell monolayers were subjected to hypoxia in the absence (control) or presence of 30 μmol/L oleic acid (oleic acid) for 24 hours and then assessed for sickle RBC adherence and VCAM-1 expression.
