Serum levels of s-TM s-ICAM-1 and s-VCAM-1 were detected to evaluate endothelial injury in vivo.

<p>Values are means ± SD (n = 3). (A) The concentration of s-TM increased about 3 times in EMPs treated group compared with the normal control group. (B) The level of s-VCAM-1 was ng/ml in EMPs treated group and ng/ml in normal control group. (C) The level of s-ICAM-1 was times higher in EMPs treated group than in normal control group. *P < 0.05, # P < 0.05.
