A schematic cross-section of an artery shows marked concentric thickening of the tunica media, compressing the central blood-filled lumen. In the biological hierarchy, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) within the arterial wall (tissue) form part of an artery (anatomical structure) of the cardiovascular system. In histology, pathology, and physiology, this illustrates arterial hypertrophy, where VSMC enlargement and extracellular matrix (ECM) increase stiffen the vessel, affecting systemic hemodynamics and resistance. Layers include endothelium (EC) lining the intima, an internal elastic lamina, and an outer adventitia.
