Abstract excerpt
The extracellular matrix protein osteopontin (OPN) plays a nonredundant role in atherosclerosis and restenosis. Here we investigated the impact of OPN up-regulation in an in vitro model of re-endothelialization after mechanical injury of the endothelial cell monolayer. Murine aortic endothelial (...
