Abstract

Background —Clinical and experimental evidence suggest that the adventitia participates in the response to endoluminal vascular injury. The current study used a direct approach to test the hypothesis that, after balloon injury of the rat carotid artery, adventitial fibroblasts migrate in a luminal direction and contribute to neointima formation. Methods and Results —Primary syngeneic adventitial fibroblasts were stably transduced with retroviral particles coordinating expression of β-galactosidase (LacZ) and introduced into the adventitia of right carotid arteries of rats immediately after balloon injury. At defined times after injury and fibroblast implantation, rats were euthanized, and arterial tissue was examined for detection of LacZ mRNA (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction), DNA (polymerase chain reaction), and in situ enzymatic activity. LacZ expression was detected in the media 5 days postinjury and in both media and neointima at 7, 10, and 14 days postinjury. LacZ was undetectable in injured vessels that had not been seeded with transduced fibroblasts and was restricted to the adventitia in seeded vessels that were not injured. Conclusions —These observations provide direct demonstration of adventitial fibroblast migration into neointima of arteries after endoluminal injury.

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.
