Abstract excerpt
In atherosclerotic lesions, smooth muscle cells (SMC) change from a contractile to a synthetic phenotype. The in vivo and in vitro phenotypic transformations of SMC have been confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), but the relationship between this change and the cell cycle is still...
