Alterations in the differentiated state of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are known to play a key role in vascular diseases, yet the mechanisms controlling SMC differentiation are still poorly understand. In this review, we discuss our present knowledge of control of SMC differentiation at the transcriptional level, pointing out some common themes, important paradigms, and unresolved issue...
The recent discovery of the new smectic-C(d6)(*) (SmC(d6)(*)) phase [S. Wang et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 027801 (2010)] also revealed the existence of a noisy region in the temperature window between the SmC(d6)(*) phase and the smectic-C(d4)(*) (SmC(d4)(*)) phase. Characterized by multiple resonant peaks spanning a wide region in Q(Z), the corresponding structure of this temperature window h...
Regular monitoring of the SMC with RXTE has revealed a huge number of X-ray pulsars. Together with discoveries from other satellites at least 45 SMC pulsars are now known. One of these sources, a pulsar with a period of approximately 7.8 seconds, was first detected in early 2002 and since discovery it has been found to be in outburst nine times. The outburst pattern clearly shows a period of 45...
BACKGROUND Subjective memory complaints (SMC) are frequently reported by individuals with objective evidence of cognitive decline although the exact rate of complaints and their diagnostic value is uncertain. METHOD A meta-analysis was conducted for all studies examining SMC and either concurrent dementia or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). RESULTS Eight studies reported the rate of SMC in ...
OBJECTIVE Vascular remodeling occurs after endothelial injury, resulting in smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and vascular fibrosis. We previously demonstrated that the blood pressure-regulating hormone aldosterone enhances vascular remodeling in mice at sites of endothelial injury in a placental growth factor-dependent manner. We now test the hypothesis that SMC mineralocorticoid receptor...
Short title: Disintegrin metalloproteinase and collagen gel contraction ABSTRACT To test the hypothesis that homocysteine induces constrictive vascular remodeling by promoting collagen contraction and by inactivating peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR), human aortic endothelial and smooth muscle cells (SMC) were isolated and characterized by positive labeling for van Willebrand fa...
Smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration from the tunica media to the intima is a key event in the development of atherosclerotic lesions and in restenosis after angioplasty. SMCs require not only migratory but also degradative abilities that enable them to migrate through extracellular matrix proteins, which surround and embed these cells. We used a collagen type I lattice as a coating on top of a p...
Objectives To compare the timelines and recommendations of the Scottish Medicines Consortium (SMC) and National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), in particular since the single technology assessment (STA) process was introduced in 2005. Design Comparative study of drug appraisals published by NICE and SMC. Setting NICE and SMC. Participants All drugs appraised by SMC and NI...
Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) possess remarkable phenotypic plasticity that allows rapid adaptation to fluctuating environmental cues. For example, vascular SMCs undergo profound changes in their phenotype during neointimal formation in response to vessel injury or within atherosclerotic plaques. Recent studies have shown that interaction of serum response factor (SRF) and its numerous accessory c...
RATIONALE Vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotypic modulation and vascular remodeling contribute to the development of several vascular disorders such as restenosis after angioplasty, transplant vasculopathy, and atherosclerosis. The mechanisms underlying these processes, however, remain largely unknown. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to determine the role of dedicator of cytoki...
