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

Background: Coexpression of β£and β€-myosin heavy chain (MHC) is a characteristic of the primary myocardial tube. To establish if the smooth-muscle proteins β£-smooth-muscle actin (β£-SMA) and calponin, and the intermediate filament protein, desmin, contribute to the specific functional properties of th
During early cardiac morphogenesis, outflow tract (OT) and atrio-ventricular (AV) endothelial cells differentiate into mesenchymal cells, which have characteristics of smooth muscle-like myofibroblasts, and which form endocardial cushion tissue, the primordia of valves, and septa in the adult heart.
## Abstract To probe the effects of possible inhibitors or enhancers of in vivo myelination, we have modified a technique widely used in studies of the developing neuromuscular system that involves incorporation of test compounds into a silicon rubber solution, which solidifies on contact with air.
