Our data in the atherogenic ApoE(-/-) mouse demonstrates that the Ang II induced increase in both monocytic CD11b integrin expression and monocyte vascular infiltration occurs early in atherogenesis. These Ang II-induced monocytic changes are in part regulated through the MCP-1/CCR2 interaction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
