Fig 1 Migration of saphenous vein cells in response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB as a function of graft outcome. Each symbol represents the mean fold of migration without PDGF for a cell line, and the bar represents the mean value for all nonstenotic or stenotic cell lines.

Fig 2 A, Cell-mediated collagen gel contraction as function of time (mean ± standard error of the mean; n = 7 cell lines). B, Collagen gel contraction at 24 hours is shown as a function of graft outcome. The symbols represent the mean value for each cell line, and the bar represents the mean value for all nonstenotic or stenotic cell lines.

Fig 3 Effect of knockdown of suprabasin (SBSN) or scavenger receptor class A member 5 (SCARA5) on saphenous vein cell collagen gel contraction (A) and proliferation (B). Data are the mean fold (± standard error of the mean) of the scrambled siRNA control of 5 experiments (gel contraction) and 4-7 experiments (proliferation). ∗P = .005 vs scrambled siRNA.
