## Abstract Arterial smooth muscle cells exhibit vasomotion, related to oscillations in intracellular Ca^2+^ concentration, but the origin and function of these has not yet been fully determined. We measured intracellular Ca^2+^ using conventional fluorescent methods in primary cultured, human umbi

## Abstract The objective of the study was to evaluate the distributions of (1) cells expressing the contractile actin isoform, α‐smooth muscle actin (α‐SMA) and (2) a lubricating and antiadhesion glycoprotein, lubricin, in the tissue around loose joint replacement prostheses in human subjects.

## Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the presence of a contractile actin isoform, α‐smooth muscle actin, in annulus fibrosus cells __in situ__ and in two and three‐dimensional cultures. Annulus fibrosus cells were isolated from healthy adult dogs, serial passaged, and then inj

Hypertension has been linked to opening of the bloodbrain barrier and may be related to the expression of the smooth muscle a-actin gene in contractile cells at the brain microvasculature. However, the cellular origin (i.e., endothelial cells, pericytes, smooth muscle cells) of the a-actin mRNA in t
