Close relation of arterial ICC-like cells to the contractile phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cell [PDF]

, 2007
This work aimed to establish the lineage of cells similar to the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), the arterial ICC-like (AIL) cells, which have recently been described in resistance arteries, and to study their location in the artery wall.

Origin and differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells [PDF]

The Journal of Physiology, 2015
Abstractimage Vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs), a major structural component of the vessel wall, not only play a key role in maintaining vascular structure but also perform various functions. During embryogenesis, SMC recruitment from their progenitors is an important step in the formation of the embryonic vascular system.

Galectin-3 Mediates Thrombin-Induced Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Migration

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration is an important step in the progression and development of vulnerable plaques. Thrombin is involved in both physiological and pathological processes of atherosclerosis.

Regulation of Pulmonary Vascular Smooth Muscle Contractility in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Implications for Therapy

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
There are two primary components that produce pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH); aberrant structural changes (smooth muscle cell proliferation, smooth muscle cell hypertrophy, and the deposition of matrix proteins within the media of pulmonary ...
