Abstract excerpt
Rat aortic smooth muscle cells (SMC) have been established by retroviral delivery of the complementary DNA (cDNA) for the simian virus 40 large T antigen (SV40LT) and examined for SMC phenotypic markers and growth characteristics, including responsiveness to the antiproliferative effects of heparin. The transfected cells (SV40LT-SMC) maintain defined SMC characteristics for more than 215 population doublings (PD)...
