Expression of adiponectin receptors by vascular smooth muscle cells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)Adiponectin (APN) is a 30-kDA insulin-sensitizing protein with strong effects on the vasculature. It binds three receptors: AdipoR1, AdipoR2, and T-cadherin. APN and AdipoRs are well-studied in the vascular endothelium, ... -
Role of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in the regulation of mitochondrial function in vascular smooth muscle cells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)[EMBARGOED UNTIL 5/1/2024] Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), a serine protease inhibitor produced by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and other cells, triggers metabolic dysfunction and cell senescence in ...
