Activation of thromboxane receptor modulates interleukin-1β-induced monocyte adhesion―A novel role of Nox1

► Activation of TPr enhances interleukin-1-induced Nox1 expression. ► Activation of TPr differentially regulates VCAM-1 and iNOS expression. ► Nox1 expression enhances monocyte adhesion through inactivation of nitric oxide.
