Extracellular matrix-specific focal adhesions in vascular smooth muscle produce mechanically active adhesion sites

Integrin-mediated mechanotransduction in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) plays an important role in the physiological control of tissue blood flow and vascular resistance. To test whether force applied to specific extracellular matrix (ECM)-integrin interactions could induce myogenic-like mecha...
