Phenotypic Modulation by Fibronectin Enhances the Angiotensin II–Generating System in Cultured Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

We previously demonstrated that homogeneous cultures of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) from spontaneously hypertensive rats produce angiotensin II (Ang II) in response to increases in the levels of angiotensinogen, cathepsin D, and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). The change of VSMCs from...
