## Abstract The proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α is mainly produced in cells from the monocyte/macrophage lineage. TNFα is also a key signaling molecule in the liver functioning as an important physiological and pathogenic mediator. In hepatocytes or human hepatoma cells TNFα
The human leukemic cell line AML-193 was tested for its proliferative response to endogenously produced autocrine factors and to a variety of cytokines and colony-stimulating factors. Cells grown in the absence of GM-CSF incorporated tritiated thymidine, and this was partially reversed by adding neu
The effects were examined of baicalein on tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) production stimulated by interleukin-1␣ (IL-1) and tumour necrosis factor-␣ (TNF-␣) in cultured human vein umbilical endothelial cells (HUVECs). IL-1 and TNF-␣ increased
