Figure 3From: Pleiotropic effects of statins in distal human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cellsEffect of statins on cell counts. (A-B) Inhibition of serum-stimulated (5% FBS) proliferation; simvastatin being more potent than atorvastatin at equimolar concentrations. Data are mean ± SEM of replicate values, representative of independent experiments with IPAH cells (A), and of distinct non-IPAH PASMC isolates (n = 4) (B). *, P < 0.05; ***, P < 0.001 versus control cells.Back to article page
