Abstract excerpt
Broad diversity in contractile and pharmacological properties of different smooth muscles is well recognized. Differences in proliferative capacity, electrophysiology, phenotypic marker protein content, matrix synthesis, and expression of cell-specific transcription factors between individual smooth muscle cells (SMCs) have also been reported. Precise developmental and molecular mechanisms underlying...
