Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of vascular smooth muscle cells from adult human, monkey and rabbit in primary culture and in subculture.

TL;DR: A method is presented for growing large numbers of pure isolated smooth muscle cells from adult human, monkey, and rabbit blood vessels in primary culture to modify or “dedifferentiated” after about 9 days in culture to morphologically resemble fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of the reaction of cultured smooth and cardiac muscle cells and fibroblasts to specific antibodies to myosin.

TL;DR: Immunofluorescent staining with anti-smooth or anti-striated muscle myosin is useful for distinguishing between isolated smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts in tissue culture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Membrane alteration of trypsin-treated smooth muscle cells and penetration by antibodies to myosin

TL;DR: It is concluded from these experiments that above a crucial trypsin concentration, the membrane becomes altered sufficiently to permit the penetration of antibodies into the cell interior.
