Phenotypes and Cellular Mechanics of Primary Human Aorta- and Pluripotent Stem Cell-derived Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
2025-12-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Aims</h4> Mature, contractile vascular smooth muscle cells (vSMC) in the medial layer of muscular blood vessels can de-differentiate into synthetic vSMC, while human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) differentiate into proliferating, fetal-like vSMC that can be induced to form contractile vSMC. Our aim was to define the mechanical properties of well-characterized in vitro-differentiated vSMC compared to vSMC deri...
