Structural and functional studies of caveolae in the femoral artery

Caveolae are important microdomains found in the plasma membrane, which act as signalling hubs in endothelial cells (ECs) and smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Thus, disruption of caveolae by membrane cholesterol depleting agents such as methyl β-cyclodextrin (M-β-CD) has various functional effects on art...
