A cell culture model using rat coronary artery adventitial fibroblasts to measure collagen production
BACKGROUND: We have developed a rat cell model for studying collagen type I production in coronary artery adventitial fibroblasts. Increased deposition of adventitial collagen type I leads to stiffening of the blood vessel, increased blood pressure, arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease. Altho...
