Abstract excerpt
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) may be programmed by nutrient deprivation. We found that after 2 and 12 h exposure to 75% reduced amino acids, the release of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF beta 1) from VSMC was significantly greater than that from cells maintained in control medium [2572.0 (546.3) vs 602.1 (241.7), P=0.001 and 16 028.0 (2192. 4) vs 13 027.3...
