This graphical abstract illustrates the chondroprotective mechanism of exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) preconditioned with polyphenol‐rich Duhuo Jisheng Decoction (DHJST‐Exos). Enriched with bioactive compounds such as wogonin, quercetin, and kaempferol, DHJST‐Exos effectively ameliorate osteoarthritis (OA ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.
