Expression of SMGA in smooth muscle and non-smooth muscle cells. The endogenous expression of SMGA was characterized in the cell types used in this study. (A) CV1 cells, (B) chicken embryo fibroblasts, (C) differentiated chicken gizzard SMCs and (D) human pulmonary artery intimal SMCs were fixed in 3% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with methanol:acetone, and stained for the presence of SMGA by immunofluorescence. FITC-labeled secondary antibodies were used to detect SMGA and the nuclei were stained with DAPI.
