Abstract excerpt
The synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) by contractile and irreversible synthetic phenotypes of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC), and their response to endothelial cell conditioned medium (ECCM), has been investigated. Contractile SMC, (with a high volume fraction of myofilaments) were obtained by culturing freshly isolated rabbit aortic SMC for 3 days in primary culture. Irreversible synthetic SMC (with a...
