Soluble Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1, Soluble Vascular Adhesion Molecule-1, and the Development of Symptomatic Peripheral Arterial Disease in Men

Soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1, soluble vascular adhesion molecule-1, and the development of symptomatic peripheral arterial disease in men.

BACKGROUND Elevated levels of soluble cellular adhesion molecules have been linked to the development of occlusive coronary events in otherwise healthy individuals. It is not certain, however, whether similar relationships exist for the development of early systemic atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS In a prospective, nested case-control study conducted among 14 916 middle-aged men, we eval...

Soluble Intercellular Adhesion Molecule

Previous studies have suggested that intercellular ad¬ hesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1, CD54) may be involved in the pathogenesis ofasthma. In addition, a soluble form of ICAM-1 (sICAM-1) has been detected in increased concentrations in the sera of patients with certain in¬ flammatory conditions. To determine whether bron¬ chial asthma is associated with increased levels of sICAM-1 in serum and to as...

Soluble Intracellular Adhesion Molecule-1 in the Serum of Colon and Gastric Cancer Patients

Angiogenic activity of human soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1.

Serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) are elevated in a number of pathological conditions associated with angiogenesis, including tumor growth. Because the increased levels of sICAM-1 suggested that it may be angiogenic, we tested the ability of sICAM-1 to promote angiogenesis. Human recombinant sICAM-1 stimulates chemokinetic endothelial cell migration, endothelia...

the effect of high interval intensity training on plassma soluble intercellular adhesion molecule -1 (sicam-1) in sedentary obese male.

obesity is known to increase the risk for cardiovascular diseases. serum levels of cellular adhesion molecules are reported to be indices of arthrosclerosis. so each intervention that has benefit effects on them is very important for general health. the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of high interval intensity training programs on icam-1. 18 sedentary obese males with mean ±s...
