HCASMC分離自人類(lèi)主動(dòng)脈的無(wú)斑塊區(qū)域,同時(shí)平滑肌α-肌動(dòng)蛋白染色呈陽(yáng)性。冠狀動(dòng)脈為心臟提供血液,防止動(dòng)脈粥樣硬化引起的心肌梗塞。HCASMC適用于研究平滑肌細(xì)胞在動(dòng)脈粥樣硬化斑塊或其他如高血壓等疾病形成過(guò)程中的功能。這些細(xì)胞也適用于動(dòng)脈支架兼容性檢測(cè)。
Primary Human Coronary Artery Smooth Muscle Cells (HCASMC) are isolated from human coronary arteries and stain positive for smooth muscle α-actin. Coronary arteries supply the heart with blood and obstruction in atherosclerosis causes myocardial infarction.
HCASMC are qualified to study the function of smooth muscle cells in the development of atherosclerotic plaques or in other diseases like hypertension. They are also useful for stent-graft compatibility testing.
