Abstract excerpt
In light of the complex origins of ectopic vascular calcification and its significant health implications, this study offers a comprehensive exploration of the molecular dynamics governing vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Focusing on epigenetic modulation, we investigate the transition from a contractile to a calcifying phenotype in VSMCs, with an emphasis on understanding the role of SIRT1. For this...
