Protective Function of Ahnak1 in Vascular Healing after Wire Injury.

abstract：:Migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) leading to neointimal hyperplasia is an early and cardinal feature of atherogenesis. Migration of rat aortic SMCs from an upper chamber towards a lower one has been studied in a microchemotaxis (Boyden) chamber. Spontaneous migration of SMCs was practically prevented by...

abstract：PURPOSE:Hypoxic conditions cause fibroblasts to differentiate into alpha smooth-muscle cell actin (α -SMA)-positive cells, i.e. myofibroblasts. This process is a hallmark of venous neointimal hyperplasia (VNH) associated with hemodialysis vascular access. The purpose of this study was to determine if blood outgrowth en...
