Urotensin II induces phenotypic differentiation, migration, and collagen synthesis of adventitial fibroblasts from rat aorta.

Journal of hypertension - 1 Jun 2008

Zhang Yong-Gang, Li Jun, Li Yu-Guang, Wei Rui-Hong

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Urotensin II is a new potent vasoconstrictor. Nevertheless, little is known about its effects on the activation of adventitial fibroblasts. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of urotensin II on phenotypic differentiation, migration, and collagen I synthesis of rat aortic adventitial fibroblasts. METHODS: Growth-arrested adventitial fibroblasts were incubated in serum-free medium with urotensin II and...
