Abstract excerpt
The effects of modulation of rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs) from the 'contractile' phenotype on surface membrane receptors binding epidermal growth factor (EGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB), as well as their responsiveness to these growth factors was investigated in cell culture. Cells predominantly of the 'contractile' phenotype expressed low...
