Objective and design To determine the requirement of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1-knockout (PAI-1) for monocyte adhesion in animals and cells under diabetic conditions. Methods and subjects Monocyte adhesion assay, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and Western blotting were used in analyzing s...
