Figure 3From: Heat shock inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced tissue factor activity in human whole bloodEffects of hyperthermia on LPS-induced tissue factor activity of leukocyte suspensions. LPS (100 ng/mL) or vehicle (CON) was added to freshly isolated leukocytes suspended in PBS, which were then incubated under heat shock conditions or normothermia. Thereafter, platelet poor plasma was added to the samples and clotting time as a measure of tissue factor was determined. Results are shown as mean and standard deviation of 8 experiments per group. *: p < 0.05Back to article page
