Biochemical studies have shown that wortmannin is an inhibitor of myosin light chain (MLC) kinase (Nakanishi et al. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267: 2157-2163). To investigate the role of MLC kinase in smooth muscle contractions, we examined the effects of wortmannin on isolated smooth muscles of the rat

Mixing feed fibroblasts with soluble collagen and serum-supplemented culture medium at 37 degrees C results in the entrapment of cells within the polymerizing collagen matrix. This cellular-collagen complex is referred to as a fibroblast-populated collagen lattice (FPCL). In time, this FPCL undergoe
