GM-CSF Exhibits Anti-Inflammatory Activity on Endothelial Cells Derived from Chronic Venous Disease Patients
Figure 1
Correlation analyses between spontaneous release of GM-CSF and in vitro biological features of VEC cultures. In (a), positive correlation between baseline release of GM-CSF and in vitro cell proliferation index and between baseline release of GM-CSF expression and TRAIL expression in VEC cultures. In (b), negative correlation between baseline release of GM-CSF and levels of expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and OPG in VEC cultures. Correlation coefficients (), calculated by Spearman’s analysis, are reported for each correlation.
