The Macromolecules of the Intercellular Matrix of the Arterial Wall: Collagen, Elastin, Proteoglycans, and Glycoproteins

  • Chapter
Arterial Mesenchyme and Arteriosclerosis

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 43))

Abstract

The arterial wall can be considered as differentiated connective tissue. Three main cell types have been described and characterized as the normal constituents of major arteries; they are the smooth muscle cells of the media, the endothelial cells limiting the intima toward the blood stream, and the “fibroblasts” in the adventitia of large arteries such as the aorta.
