• mice exhibit normal aorta morphology and blood pressure
|
• aortic smooth muscle cell explants exhibit reduced focal adhesion compared with wild-type cells
|
• following carotid artery ligation, mice exhibit excessive smooth muscle cell proliferation compared with wild-type mice
• aortic smooth muscle cell explants exhibit increased cell proliferation compared with wild-type cells
|
• in response to phenylephrine of KCl, aortic rings exhibit attenuated contractile force development compared with wild-type mice
|
• following carotid artery ligation, mice exhibit enhanced neointima formation compared with wild-type mice with increased neointimal area, intima to media ratio, medial area and smooth muscle cell proliferation
