Osteocalcin Regulates Arterial Calcification Via Altered Wnt Signaling and Glucose Metabolism
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of Bone and Mineral Research"
DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.3888
Abstract: Arterial calcification is an important hallmark of cardiovascular disease and shares many similarities with skeletal mineralization. The bone‐specific protein osteocalcin (OCN) is an established marker of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) osteochondrogenic transdifferentiation and a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tcm.2018.04.007
Abstract: Coronary artery calcification (CAC) was once thought to be a passive, degenerative, and quiescent development of disease. However, it has now been shown to be an active process associated with atherosclerosis that is stimulated by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/13697137.2021.1985991
Abstract: Abstract Background Breast arterial calcification (BAC) is a common incidental finding on screening mammography. Recent evidence suggests that BAC is associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). We systematically reviewed the associations between BAC and reproductive factors… read more here.
