Vascular Smooth Muscle Energetics

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1984
ATP utilization (delta approximately P) during an isometric contraction has been studied in terms of both measurements of oxygen consumption and lactate production as well as of the tissue nucleotide and metabolite levels. The contribution of breakdown of preformed ATP and phosphocreatine (PCr) pools to delta approximately P during contraction is minor

Leptin and Vascular Smooth Muscle

Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2006
Leptin has received extensive attention as an endogenously produced satiety factor. Although once considered to be solely derived from adipose tissue, it is now apparent that leptin can be produced by various tissues including those comprising the cardiovascular system such as blood vessels and cardiomyocytes. Moreover, leptin receptors (OBR) have been

The Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell In Culture

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1981
When smooth muscle from the aortic media of adult pigs, monkeys and rabbits are dispersed into single cells and seeded into primary culture they are in the contractile phenotype and do not undergo cell division when challenged with 5 or 10% whole blood serum.

Mechanotransduction by Vascular Smooth Muscle

Journal of Vascular Research, 2008
Mechanotransduction by vascular smooth muscle (VSM) is defined as a cellular response (contraction, secretion, growth, division) to transmural pressure or stretch. This review includes an overview of the physical forces VSM cells experience in vivo, consideration of experimental techiques used to study VSM mechanotransduction, and a discussion of the ...

Mechanics of Vascular Smooth Muscle

Comprehensive Physiology, 2016
ABSTRACT Vascular smooth muscle (VSM; see Table 1 for a list of abbreviations) is a heterogeneous biomaterial comprised of cells and extracellular matrix. By surrounding tubes of endothelial cells, VSM forms a regulated network, the vasculature, through which oxygenated blood supplies specialized organs ...

Vascular Smooth Muscle

2005
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are a major component of arteries, veins and small blood vessels. Their main function is to maintain vascular tone, via co-ordinated vasoconstriction and vasorelaxation, thereby regulating blood pressure and flow.

Effect of angiotensin on vascular smooth muscles

Pfl�gers Archiv European Journal of Physiology, 1969
The response of vascular smooth muscle to angiotensin has been studied on helical strips of canine coronary, renal, and carotid arteries and on strips of the thoracic aorta from guinea pigs and rats.
