Proliferation of smooth muscle cells from the pulmonary arteries and aortas of fetal calves is inhibited by heparin in vitro. This effect is reversible and dose dependent. Comparisons with effects of other polysaccharides indicate that only extensively sulfated polysaccharides inhibit proliferation

## Abstract Progressive stenosis or occlusion of bi ateral internal carotid arteries by fibrocellular intimal thickening results in cerebral ischemia in moyamoya disease. The etiology is unknown. We examined cultured arterial smooth muscle cells (SMC) from scalp arteries of five patients with moyam
## Abstract Plateletβderived growth factor (PDGF) and transforming growth factor Ξ² (TGFβΞ²), potent modulators of mesenchymal cell growth and differentiation, are often colocalizable in vivo. Previous in vitro studies in fibroblastic cell lines have shown variable, even antagonistic effects of TGFβΞ²
Extracellular proteoglycans (PGs) purified from cultured human arterial endothelial cells were tested for their effects on the proliferation of human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Fractions containing perlecan, the basement membrane heparan sulphate (HS) PG, the large chondrotin sulphate (CS)
