The CAD risk locus 9p21 increases the risk of vascular calcification in an iPSC-derived VSMC model

2021-01-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Chromosome locus 9p21 was the first to be associated with increased risk of CAD and coronary artery calcification (CAC). Vascular calcification increases the risk for CAD. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are one of the major cell types involved in the development of vascular calcification. <h4>Method...
