Differentiated properties and proliferation of arterial smooth muscle cells in culture

J Thyberg - International review of cytology, 1996 - Elsevier
The smooth muscle cell is the sole cell type normally found in the media of mammalian
arteries. In the adult, it is a terminally differentiated cell that expresses cytoskeletal marker …

Plant proteins as the functional building block of edible microcarriers for cell-based meat culture application

Y Kong, L Jing, D Huang - Critical Reviews in Food Science and …, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
Edible microcarriers are essential for developing cell-based meat in large-scale cell

Indirect angiogenic cytokines upregulate VEGF and bFGF gene expression in vascular smooth muscle cells, whereas hypoxia upregulates VEGF expression only.

E Brogi, T Wu, A Namiki, JM Isner - Circulation, 1994 - Am Heart Assoc
BACKGROUND Hypoxia and indirect angiogenic factors may stimulate angiogenesis via
induction of endothelial cell mitogen (s). To evaluate this hypothesis, we investigated …

Accelerated Restitution of Endothelial Integrity and Endothelium-Dependent Function After phVEGF165 Gene Transfer

T Asahara, D Chen, Y Tsurumi, M Kearney, S Rossow… - Circulation, 1996 - Am Heart Assoc
