Research on the Rat Carotid Artery Smooth Muscle Cells is essential to the study of neointimal formation post-angioplasty, vascular calcification, arterial stiffening, and balloon injury-induced remodeling. The carotid arteries are a pair of blood vessels, one on each side of the neck. They supply blood to the brain, face, and neck. The Rat Carotid Artery Smooth Muscle Cells are to be used with Rat Carotid Artery Smooth Muscle Cell Medium (Cat. No. ACM0198). This product is intended for laboratory in vitro use only. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications.
