Core Tip	Intimal stellate cells, expressing smooth muscle ?-actin that co-express antigen 3G5 antigen (known to be specific for pericytes), reside in the intima of human large arteries. There cells have been defined as “pericytes-like satellite cells” or “intimal pericytes”. Because of the peculiarities of the distribution of these cells and because of the current lack of our knowledge about the spectrum of the expression of other pericyte-associated markers in the arterial wall, it is reasonable to avoiding at this time to identify smooth muscle ?-actin(+)/3G5 antigen(+) stellate-shaped cells as true pericytes. The review highlights the importance of intimal pericytes in atherosclerosis.
