Involvement of adhesion molecule in<i>in vitro</i>plaque-like formation of macrophages stimulated with<i>Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans</i>lipopolysaccharide

Abstract

These findings indicate that ICAM-1 plays an important role in plaque-like formation of LPS-stimulated macrophages. Our microchannel chip is a suitable tool for the investigation of etiological factors of atherosclerosis, including periodontitis, in vitro.
