An in vitro System for Studying Osteochondrogenic Differentiation of Smooth Muscle Cells and Modeling Intimal Vascular Calcification
The osteochondrogenic differentiation assay results in a strong calcification phenotype together with a disease-associated CMC-like transcriptional state, providing a reliable in vitro model for mechanistic investigation of SMC phenotypic transition and prioritization of candidate regulators.
