Methotrexate inhibits proliferation but not proteoglycan synthesis or glycosaminoglycan hyperelongation in human vascular smooth muscle cells
Objectives: Atherosclerosis is a disease process involving the early deposition of lipids in the vessel wall trapped by modified proteoglycans and subsequently a chronic inflammatory process leading to the clinical events. MTX has been chosen to study the potential efficacy of an anti inflammatory...
