Elevated vascular (VSMC) and bladder smooth muscle (BSMC) NGF are associated with altered visceral innervation in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR: hypertensive, behaviorally hyperactive) compared with control Wistar-Kyotos (WKYs). Stretch stimulates increased NGF production in BSMCs. To eluc
Vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells comprise one of the primary targets of the sympathetic nervous system and have been shown to secrete nerve growth factor (NGF). There is increasing evidence that changes in the levels of NGF in the adult may underlie certain pathological conditions. To investigate
In pulmonary vascular remodelling, the lining smooth muscle cells undergo various forms of growth involving cellular hypertrophy and hyperplasia. Differences in the growth pattern between central and peripheral regions suggested that cells from both should be obtained when investigating the cellular
