## Abstract Thrombin levels increase at sites of vascular injury and during acute coronary syndromes. It is also increased several fold by sepsis with a reciprocal decrease in the antiโthrombin III levels. In this study we investigate the effects of thrombin on the induction of cyclooxygenaseโ2 (CO
## Abstract Sphingosine 1โphosphate (S1P) has been shown to regulate smooth muscle cell proliferation, migration, and vascular maturation. S1P increases the expression of several proteins including COXโ2 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and contributes to arteriosclerosis. However, the mecha
