We examined the effect of tumor necrosis factor a ITNF,) on the increase in pulmonary microvascular endothelial monolayer permeability induced by activated neutrophils (PMN). Layering of PMN onto endothelial monolayers followed by activation of PMN with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) increase
## Abstract Glucose and tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNFα) concentrations are elevated in diabetes. Both of these factors correlate with diabetic vasculopathy and endothelial cell apoptosis, yet their combined effects have not been measured. We have previously shown that the angiogenic growth factor fi
