Human primary plaque cell cultures to study mechanisms of atherosclerosis

2023-02-13

Abstract excerpt

Plaque smooth muscle cells are critical players in the initiation and advancement of atherosclerotic disease. They produce extracellular matrix (ECM) components, which play a role in lesion progression and stabilization. Despite clear phenotypic differences between plaque smooth muscle cells and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), VSMCs are still widely used as a model system in atherosclerotic research. Here we...
