We have studied the effects of mefloquine on isolated rat aorta. Mefloquine (10(-8) to 1.6 x 10(-4) mol.l-1) relaxed aortic rings precontracted with both noradrenaline (10(-7) mol.l-1) and potassium chloride (60 mmol.l-1). The mefloquine-induced relaxation was somewhat attenuated by removal of the e
Cholesterol oxidase (3 beta-hydroxy-steroid oxidase) catalyzes the oxidation of cholesterol to 4-cholesten-3 one and other oxidized cholesterol derivatives. The purpose of the present study was to investigate its effects on cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. Cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle
## Abstract Lead (Pb^2+^) has been implicated in the development of hypertension and atherosclerosis. The proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) is a central feature of both conditions and there is evidence that Pb^2+^ potentiates serumβdependent cell growth. The aim of this work was
Poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel scaffolds were engineered to promote contractile smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotype via controlled release of heparin. The scaffold design was evaluated by quantifying the effects of free heparin on SMC phenotype, engineering hydrogels to provide con
