Abstract excerpt
During vascular development, the expression of tropoelastin (TE) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) has been shown to be time dependent and to form complex patterns along the longitudinal and radial arterial axes. The factors contributing to these patterns of TE expression are not known, but it has been suggested that they reflect phenotypic changes in developing smooth muscle cells (SMC). In order to examine a...
