:
We investigated whether central CRF attenuates endothelial expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 ( ICAM-1 ) and leukocyte recruitment during endotoxemia in rats and determined its mechanisms of action
Xu et al., Br J Pharmacol 2009
(Arteritis...) :
In these rats, blood was in a hypercoagulable state ; plasma urocortin, prostaglandin E ( 2 ) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 levels were elevated ; and the expression of urocortin, CRF ( 1 ) and CRF ( 1alpha ) -receptors, COX-2 and ICAM-1 in rat femoral arteries were markedly increased
