Tgf-β stimulated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) biosynthetic gene expression in vascular smooth muscle cells

The pre-inflammatory stage of atherosclerosis is associated with proteoglycan glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chain hyperelongation that results in increased proteoglycan binding to low density lipoprotein (LDL). Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) is closely associated with atherosclerosis and mediates GA...
