Abstract excerpt
To study the functional characteristics of smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotypes, we have investigated myosin expression, cell proliferation, collagen production and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor activity in intimal SMCs of normal human aorta during their growth in primary culture. By staining with rabbit antibodies to smooth muscle myosin (ASMM) 3 cell types could be distinguished in culture:...
