Role of Cell-Cell bond for the viability and the function of vascular smooth muscle cells
Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) viability and homeostasis is regulated by cell-matrix and cell-cell contact: disruption of these interactions are responsible of a switch from a mature to a high proliferative phenotype. VSMCs migration, rate of growth and apoptosis, and the extent of their extrace...
