Engineering Smooth Muscle to Understand Extracellular Matrix Remodeling and Vascular Disease
The vascular smooth muscle is vital for regulating blood pressure and maintaining cardiovascular health, and the resident smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in blood vessel walls rely on specific mechanical and biochemical signals to carry out these functions. Any slight change in their surrounding environm...
