Abstract excerpt
In the present study, we examined the effect of sympathectomy on the distribution and the relative expression of cytoskeletal proteins used as markers of phenotypic modulation of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and myofibroblasts (MFBs) in rabbit femoral (FA) and basilar (BA) arteries. Adult rabbits were treated either with repeated 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) for sympathectomy or with vehicle for control....
