Adhesion of control and SCD neutrophils to non-stimulated (basal) and TNF-α-stimulated HUVEC. Neutrophils (2x106 cells/mL) from control (n=13) or SCD patients (n=16) were allowed to adhere to HUVEC for 30 min at 37°C, 5% CO2. Results are expressed as percentage of cells adhered (median and range). ***P<0.001, TNF-α-stimulated HUVEC compared to basal; Wilcoxon’s matched pairs test. #P<0.05, Median values differ significantly for SCD and to control cells; Mann-Whitney test.
