Abstract excerpt
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of vascular occlusive disorders such as atherosclerosis and restenosis in part due to its regulation of smooth muscle cell phenotype. The molecular mechanisms regulating the expression of PDGF-Ralpha, which binds all known dimeric forms of PDGF except PDGF-DD, are poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that the winged helix-turn-helix...
