Abstract excerpt
The A(2B) adenosine receptor (A(2B)AR) has been described to control various vascular functions, including inhibition of smooth muscle cell proliferation. Here, we sought to understand the regulation of A(2B)AR gene expression in aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), with a focus on the proliferation phase. Assays with A(2B)AR-beta-gal aortic VSMCs, in which the endogenous A(2B)AR gene promoter drives the...
