Effects of cyclic stretch on the molecular regulation of myocardin in rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells

BACKGROUND: The expression of myocardin, a cardiac-restricted gene, increases during environmental stress. How mechanical stretch affects the regulation of myocardin in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is not fully understood. We identify the mechanisms and pathways through which mechanical stre...
