title: [Adhesion Molecules and Subpopulation of Mononuclear Cells in Pulmonary Arteries].
abstract: Atherosclerosis is associated with increased expression of adhesion molecules by vascular endothelium.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  to study endothelial expression of platelet endothelial cellular adhesion molecules (PECAM) (CD31), intercellular adhesion molecules (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecules (VCAM-1F) as well as T-cells and monocytes adhered to endothelium.
  
  
  METHODS
  Research materials were en face specimens.
