Abstract excerpt
Using an in vitro model of a conditionally immortalized cell line, we have investigated how human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are affected by the expression of simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen (LT antigen), which binds to cell cycle regulators such as the tumor suppressor protein p53. Cells were obtained after infection of saphenous vein-derived VSMCs with a nonreplicative retroviral vector...
