Cultured smooth muscle cells isolated from beta-amyloid-affected blood vessels from old dogs accumulate beta-protein at early passages [5,24]. Now, we show that smooth muscle cells derived from amyloid-free brain blood vessels and peripheral arteries from old and young animals are induced by culture conditions to deposit intracellularly fibrillar and non-fibrillar beta-protein. Accumulation of beta-protein is associated with a higher secretion of beta-protein, but not with a higher secretion of beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta APP) or higher cellular content of beta APP. Gradual cessation of proliferative activity was observed in cultures that accumulate beta-protein.
