Strain Regulation of VSMC Hyperplasia and Hypertrophy: VSMC area (A), perimeter (B), and cells per high power field (hpf; panel C) data from control (N = 17) and strained (N = 16) cells. Proliferation index (D), cellular protein (E), and protein/DNA ratio (F) data for control (open symbols) and strained (closed symbols) VSMC. N = 6 to 9 per group; *p < 0.05; ***p < 0.001 vs. control at the same time point.
