Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic modulation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) from a contractile to a synthetic state characterised by active proliferation appears to be an early event in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. A similar transition occurs when SMCs are established in culture. In this study the phenotypic plasticity and surface structural changes of aortal smooth muscle cells during the transition from the contractile to the...
