Cell Information:
Arterial smooth muscle cells are capable of synthesizing collagen, elastin, myosin and glycosaminoglycan. Increased production of connective tissue components, hyperplasia and hypertrophy of intimal smooth muscle cells are found to gradually occlude the vessel lumen in atherosclerosis.Arterysmooth muscle cellsrespond to various factors by proliferating or differentiating. They are a well established cell system for the study of human vascular disorders such as atherosclerosis and stroke.
Applications
The Transfection Reagent:
Transfection of primary cells, such as Human Artery Smooth Muscle Cells, has always been challenging, both technically and financially. The most common systems currently used for molecular delivery to these cells include expensive electroporation instruments and relatively toxic chemical formulations.
Human Artery Smooth Muscle Cell Avalanche™ Transfection Reagent is a new, proprietary solution specifically designed for transfection on Human Artery Smooth Muscle Cells. The proprietary formulation of lipids and polymers ensures the highest possible transfection efficiencies and viabilities for Human Artery Smooth Muscle Cells. No other transfection reagents can match the efficiency, convenience, and gentleness of Human Artery Smooth Muscle Cell Avalanche™ Transfection Reagent for transfection on Human Artery Smooth Muscle Cells.
