The Elusive Origin of Atherosclerotic Plaque Calcification
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 It has been known for decades or even centuries that arteries calcify as they age. Vascular calcification probably affects all adults, since virtually all have atherosclerotic plaques: an accumulation of lipids, inflammatory cells, necrotic debris, and ...

Mechanisms of chondrocyte apoptosis
Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 1999 This study addresses the occurrence and significance of chondrocyte apoptosis in the pathogenesis of cartilage destruction. Chondrocyte apoptosis can be induced in vitro by nitric oxide donors, but not by pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1 or TNF.
