Abstract
Membrane expression of β2 Mac-I, urokinase receptors, and membrane-bound urokinase on peripheral blood monocytes is studied in healthy donors and patients with stable angina pectoris. Spontaneous, formylpeptide- and urokinase-induced monocyte migration is assessed. Monocytes from patients are characterized by a higher content of membrane-bound urokinase. In contrast to peripheral blood monocytes from healthy donors, exogenous urokinase does not enhance migration of monocytes from patients with angina.
