Results: This study revealed that GPS infection induces increased vascular endothelial permeability in porcine iliac artery endothelial cells (PIECs) by increasing the gene expressions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin 6 (IL-6), IL-8, and IL-1β, and by regulating F-actin cytoskeleton reorganization. Here, IL1B is linked to infection.
