Extracellular Histones Promote Calcium Phosphate-Dependent Calcification in Mouse Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
2023-09-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Vascular calcification, a major risk factor for cardiovascular events, is associated with a poor prognosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. This process is often associated with the transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) into cells with osteoblast-like characteristics. Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), such as extracellular histones released from damaged or dy...
