摘要:
The present study was designed to examine the effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) on angiotensin II-induced proliferation of cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells. Vascular smooth muscle cells were grown from explants of Sprague-Dawley rat aorta. Vascular smooth muscle cells (between passages 5 and 10) were incubated with 0.1% neonatal calf serum for 48 h, and then treated with angiotensin II (100 nM) in the absence or presence of CGRP for 24 h. The viability, DNA synthesis and cell cycle of vascular smooth muscle cells were me...
