Comparative effects of aspirin and NO-releasing aspirins on differentiation, maturation and function of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells in vitro
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2009)
Acetylsalicilyc acid (aspirin, ASA) is a well known anti-inflammatory drug with immunomodulatory properties. NO-releasing aspirins (NO-ASA) are new compounds with anti-inflammatory properties. We studied the effects of ASA ...
