[HTML][HTML] CCN4 regulates vascular smooth muscle cell migration and proliferation
H Liu, W Dong, Z Lin, J Lu, H Wan, Z Zhou, Z Liu - Molecules and cells, 2013 - Elsevier
The migration and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are essential
elements during the development of atherosclerosis and restenosis. An increasing number
of studies have reported that extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, including the CCN protein
family, play a significant role in VSMC migration and proliferation. CCN4 is a member of the
CCN protein family, which controls cell development and survival in multiple systems of the
body. Here, we sought to determine whether CCN4 is involved in VSMC migration and …
