It has been proposed that alterations of the balance between programmed cell death and cell replication might be involved in abnormalities of smooth muscle cell growth in arterial hypertension. This study was designed to analyse some regulators of apoptosis and proliferation in smooth muscle cells of small intra-myocardial arteries from the left ventricle of adult normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) and adult spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Therefore, we assessed the expression of the cytoplasmic proteins Bax and Bcl-2, respectively a promoter and an inhibitor of apoptosis, and the expression of cyclin A, a nuclear protein that induces proliferation of smooth muscle cells.
