Transendothelial resistance (TER) of HUVECs treated with septic serum. Normalized transendothelial electrical resistance (TER) was longitudinally measured in real time in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with an electric cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) device. HUVECs were then challenged with either septic serum before cytokine removal (bold line) or with serum from the same patient 24 h after cytokine removal (dotted line). TER normalization refers to the start point of the experiment for each condition (i.e., 5 min before septic serum incubation)
