We tested the hypothesis that Mg 2ΓΎ influences growth of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) by modulating cell cycle activation through mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase-dependent pathways. Rat VSMCs were grown in culture medium containing normal Mg 2ΓΎ (1.02 mmol/L, control) and increasing co
Using the patch-clamp technique, we have characterised the inward current from enzymatically dispersed rabbit pulmonary arterial cells, and investigated the effects of the vasodilator, nitroprusside (NP), on these and other membrane currents. With Cs+-filled pipettes, inward currents were recorded d
