Iso-Osmolar Iodixanol Induces Less Increase in Circulating Endothelial Microparticles In Vivo and Less Endothelial Apoptosis In Vitro Compared with Low-Osmolar Iohexol

Figure 4

The induction of EMP release from HUVECs by iodixanol or iohexol. HUVECs were treated with different concentrations of iodixanol or iohexol for 4 h and CD31+/CD41a EMPs (a) and CD62E+ EMPs (b) were measured by flow cytometry. The data were expressed as mean ± SD (). Complete growth medium served as control. versus control; versus iodixanol.
