Vascular Smooth Muscle (Structure and Function in Health and Disease) || Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation and Invasion in AtherosclerosisAtherosclerosis, an inflammatory disease of arteries, is a leading cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerosis is characterized by the formation of lipid-laden ...
Structure and Function of Airway Smooth Muscle Airway smooth muscleis a structural component of the walls of all of the airways within the bronchialtree, from the trachea to the smallest respiratorybronchioles(1,2). In the lung parenchymal tissue, smooth muscle is found within the alveolar ducts...
It is also expressed in the cytoplasm of non-muscle cells, functioning to control cell structure and motility (1). Polymerization of globular actin (G-actin) leads to a structural filament (F-actin), whose formation requires the Arp2/3 complex (2). It ...

However, pharmacological agonists activate both PPARγ-dependent and -independent mechanisms in multiple cell types confounding efforts to clarify the precise role of PPARγ in smooth muscle cell structure and function in vivo. We, therefore, designed and characterized a mouse model with smooth muscle...

3.316.5.1.2.4 Smooth muscle cells Smooth muscle cells are a phenotypically heterogeneous cell population. Studies of these cells, therefore, have long been hampered by the lack of suitable markers. For example, both smooth muscle cells and myofibroblasts are characterized by the expression of α-sm...
Although the developmental origins of lymphatic smooth muscle are not well studied, the unique physiology of their contractile activity argues for the function of tissue-specific gene products, similar to the lymphatic endothelial cell-specific molecules described previously (15).
