Figure 4. Isolated monocytes synthesise TF in response to MRSA infection.

Figure 4

A) MRSA (9x102 colony cfu/ml) or LPS (100 ng/ml) was incubated with isolated monocytes (2 x 106/ml) at 37ºC for 18 hours and TF-dependent pro-coagulant activity was measured as described. B) To examine the role of RBC, platelets, and monocyte-derived MP, cellular supernatant was centrifuged at 20,000 x g for 20 minutes to remove MP. The supernatant and/or the resultant MP fraction was measured for TF activity as described. Each point reflects the mean (± SEM) of 2–5 experiments.
