Abstract

Smooth muscle cells from the aortic media of adult pigs and monkeys have been grown in primary culture by plating cells enzymatically dissociated from the intact aorta. During the first 6 d these cells are in the "contractile" phenotype. That is, they contract slowly in response to angiotensin II and their cytoplasm is filled with both thick and thin myofilaments. In this state they do not incorporate [3H]thymidine into DNA or proliferate in response to normolipemic or hyperlipemic whole blood serum (WBS). After 7 d in culture the cells undergo a spontaneous modulation of phenotype to a "synthetic" state where they cannot be stimulated to contract and their cytoplasm is filled with organelles usually associated with synthesis of secretory protein. Thick myosin-containing filaments can no longer be demonstrated. When challenged with normolipemic or hyperlipemic WBS the cells incorporate [3H]thymidine into DNA and undergo logarithmic growth. It is suggested that when smooth muscle is the contractile phenotype (as normally exists for most cells in the aortic media of adult animals) it does not divide when challenged with serum mitogens but can undergo a change of phenotype to a synthetic state in which division can be stimulated.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
