Abstract
Intimal smooth muscle cell proliferation is the primary cause of restenosis following balloon angioplasty. Its underlying basis and progression remain unclear. The authors developed an organ culture of human coronary artery subjected to balloon angioplasty in order to investigate the cellular and molecular basis of intimal proliferation in a preparation that maintained the anatomic relationships of the vessel wall.
