Abstract

We examined the potential contribution of thromboxanes in human monocyte adherence to plastic. Monocyte adherence to plastic could be augmented by various stimuli including lipopolysaccharide, chemotactic peptide, and supernates of antigen-stimulated lymphocytes. Increments in monocyte adhesiveness were suppressed by inhibition of cyclooxygenase, thromboxane synthetase, or by antiserum to thromboxane B₂. Neither prostaglandin E₂ or F_2α significantly affected baseline or lipopolysaccharide-stimulated monocyte adherence. Additional experiments confirmed incremental production of thromboxane B₂ by monocytes after incubation with lipopolysaccharide. Thromboxane B₂ itself did not stimulate monocyte adhesiveness. These data demonstrate that monocytes release thromboxane A₂ following stimulation and suggest that thromboxane A₂ may play a significant role in monocyte-substrate attachment.
