Thrombin Receptor Activation Inhibits Monocyte Spreading by Induction of ETB Receptor-Coupled Nitric Oxide Release

Abstract The effect of thrombin receptor activation on monocyte conformation was evaluated using the human monocyte cell line, THP-1, and the thrombin mimetic peptide, Trap-14. Treatment of THP-1 cells with Trap-14 induced rapid rounding of ameboid cells adherent to fibronectin-coated slides, wherea...
