Background The adventitia undergoes remodeling changes after a deep medial coronary injury. Because this process is associated with the formation of adventitial myofibroblasts, which resemble medial smooth muscle (SM) cells, we have examined myofibroblast involvement in the development of neointima.Methods and Results In a porcine model, severe endoluminal coronary injury resulted in fibroblast proliferation and adventitial remodeling. Significant adventitial responses were associated with increased neointimal formation (P
