Contribution of PDGFRα-positive cells in maintenance and injury responses in mouse large vessels
Abstract The maladaptive remodeling of vessel walls with neointima formation is a common feature of proliferative vascular diseases. It has been proposed that neointima formation is caused by the dedifferentiation of mature smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Recent evidence suggests that adventitial cells...
