Hyperactive TGF-β Signaling in Smooth Muscle Cells Exposed to HIV-protein(s) and Cocaine: Role in Pulmonary Vasculopathy

We earlier demonstrated synergistic increase in the proliferation of pulmonary smooth muscle cells on exposure to HIV-proteins and/or cocaine due to severe down-modulation of bone morphogenetic protein receptor (BMPR) axis: the anti-proliferative arm of TGF-β super family of receptors. Here, now we...
