## Abstract Plateletβderived growth factor (PDGF) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of arterial atherosclerosis and venous neointimal hyperplasia. We examined the effects of PDGF isoforms on smooth muscle cells (SMCs) from arterial and venous origins in order to further understand the differe

## Abstract Plateletβderived growth factor (PDGF) has been implicated in smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation, a key event in the development of myointimal hyperplasia in vascular grafts. Recent evidence suggests that the PDGF receptor (PDGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, imatinib, can prevent arte
## Abstract Migration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are key events during neointimal formation in pathological conditions of vessels. TenascinβC (TNC) is upregulated in the developing neointima of lesions. We evaluated the effects of TNC on responses of SMCs against plateletβderiv
