Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) has been typically considered to be an endothelial-specific growth factor. However, it was recently demonstrated that VEGF can interact with non endothelial cells. In this study, we tested whether vascular smooth muscles cells (VSMCs) can express VEGF recept
## Abstract In culture, vascular smooth muscle cells proliferate until they form a confluent sheet of cells. At that time the morphology of the culture becomes altered and the cells form multilayered regions that eventually develop into nodular aggregations. We now demonstrate that the transition f
Production of various components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) modulates biological functions of the vascular tissue. This process is generally amplified in pathologic states as atherosclerosis. Atheroma originates from smooth muscle cells (SMC) which have migrated and proliferated in the vascul
