Trophoblast-Induced Changes in C-X-C Motif Chemokine 10 Expression Contribute to Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Dedifferentiation During Spiral Artery Remodeling - AHA/ASA Journals
Other mechanisms of disappearance of VSMC during artery remodeling are unknown, however, disruption and disorganization of the VSMC layer has been attributed to both apoptosis and dedifferentiation.
