Abstract:
AIM: To explore the mechanism of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on vascular endothelial cell(VEC) damage. METHODS: By using cytometry techniques, we studied the effects of LPS on apoptosis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro . RESULTS: LPS was able to induce apoptosis of HUVECs in a time-dose-dependent fashion.CONCLUSION:Apoptosis might play a role in LPS-induced damage of vascular endothelial cells.
