The long preservation and recovery of functional (contractile) properties in cultured aortic smooth muscle cells, even after replating or deep-frozen storage and the measurement of their responses are now technically settled issues. We could thus study extensively the responses of single cultured ce
## Abstract Vascular disease, such as atherosclerosis, is accompanied by changes in the mechanical properties of the vessel wall. Although altered mechanics is thought to contribute to disease progression, the molecular mechanisms whereby vessel wall stiffening could promote vascular occlusive dise
