Abstract

A variety of amines induced a dose‐dependent and time‐dependent increase in thromboplastin activity of cultured human monocytes. The increase required protein synthesis, and reached a peak after about 18 h. Some inhibitory effects were noted at low concentrations of NH4Cl. It is suggested that the amines act by raising the pH of acidic intracellular compartments.
