General description

PCASMC were used to investigate the role of c-Jun in smooth muscle proliferation, and to show that c-Jun inhibition abrogates smooth muscle cell growth and intimal thickening after arterial injury (Khachigian, 2002). PCASMC were also used to develop poly (l-lactide-co-caprolactone) nanofibrous scaffold material with potential for tissue engineering (Dong, 2008).

Characterization: positive for smooth muscle cell specific alpha-actin expression.

In Young Choi et al.
Biomaterials, 269, 120222-120222 (2020-08-02)
Stem cell fate is largely determined by cellular signaling networks and is heavily dependent on the supplementation of exogenous recombinant proteins into culture media; however, uneven distribution and inconsistent stability of recombinant proteins are closely associated with the spontaneous differentiation
