Fig 3 — VSMC on structured substrate acquire contractile phenotype. A. Quantification of percentage of cells containing SMA-positive contractile fibrils after VSMC cultivation of non-structured and structured substrates. B. Morphology of VSMC cultivated on non-structured and structured substrates was characterized by calculating cells circularity using ImageJ software. Expression of SMA (C), uPAR(D), and uPA (E) in VSMC cultivated on plane and structured substrate was assessed by TaqMan RT-PCR. GUSB expression was used for normalization.
