Induction of TF expression on the monocyte membrane by plasmin.
Flow cytometric analysis of TF on human monocytes incubated for 8 hours with plasmin 0.43 CTA U/mL (black), LPS 1 μg/mL (black), or unstimulated controls (gray). Cells were stained with unspecific IgG1 (MOPC21, negative control, white) and antihuman TF antibodies. Binding of primary antibodies was visualized by anti–mouse IgG PE-conjugated secondary antibodies. Results of 1 of 3 experiments are shown.
