Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic variability of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) can serve as a good model for studying the mechanisms regulating the expression of adhesion-mediating proteins. To describe phenotypic changes of human aortic SMCs, we have studied the expression of cytodifferentiation-related adhesion...
