1 Differences in secretion of prostacyclin by venous and arterial endothelial cells grown in vitro in a static versus a mechanically active environment  Gilbert R. Upchurch, BA, Albert J. Banes, PhD, Willis H. Wagner, MD, Fuad Ramadan, MD, Garnett W. Link, PhD, Renee H.

2 Fig. 1 Difference in secretion of PGI2 by venous and arterial ECs (VEC and AEC) isolated from the same animal and grown in a control environment. Cells for this experiment were first-passage cells and were seeded at an initial density of 30,000 cells per well. Data are shown as the mean ± SD (n = six wells per day). A statistically significant increase of PGI2 is seen on day 5, with venous ECs secreting more PGI2 per cell than do arterial ECs.
