Mouse Aortic Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells from AcceGen are isolated from tissue of pathogen-free laboratory mice.
C57BL/6 Mouse Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells are isolated from the aortic tissue of C57BL/6 mice and represent the main cell type of the tunica media in the vascular wall. These cells are usually spindle-shaped in morphology, grow adherently, and form a monolayer cell structure. They express smooth muscle cell marker α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Their functions include regulating vascular tension through contraction-relaxation, participating in the remodeling process of the vascular wall, and maintaining the integrity of the vascular structure by secreting extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as collagen (type I/III) and elastin. The cells undergo rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and are rigorously tested to ensure they are free of contamination from HIV-1, HBV, HCV, Syphilis, Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.

C57BL/6 Mouse Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells can be utilized to investigate the phenotypic transformation mechanisms of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), including the transition from the contractile to the synthetic phenotype, a process closely associated with vascular pathological remodeling. These cells are also commonly employed to evaluate the inhibitory effects of drugs (such as statins or TGF-β inhibitors) on the proliferation of smooth muscle cells.
