Role of galectin-3 in bone cell differentiation, bone pathophysiology and vascular osteogenesis [PDF]
, 2017 Galectin-3 is expressed in various tissues, including the bone, where it is considered a marker of chondrogenic and osteogenic cell lineages. Galectin-3 protein was found to be increased in the differentiated chondrocytes of the metaphyseal plate ...

Iron and vascular calcification. Is there a link? [PDF]
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2011 Iron deficiency is frequently seen in patients with end-stage renal disease, particularly in those treated by dialysis, this is because of an impairment in gastrointestinal absorption and ongoing blood losses or alternatively, due to an impaired capacity to mobilize iron from its stores, called functional iron deficiency.

The Interplay Between Brain Vascular Calcification and Microglia [PDF]
, 2022 Vascular calcifications are characterized by the ectopic deposition of calcium and phosphate in the vascular lumen or wall. They are a common finding in computed tomography scans or during autopsy and are often directly related to a pathological ...

Vascular calcification: Mechanisms of vascular smooth muscle cell calcification [PDF]
Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2015 Vascular calcification is highly prevalent and, when present, is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events. Vascular smooth muscle cells play an integral role in mediating vessel calcification by undergoing differentiation to osteoblast-like cells and generating matrix vesicles that serve as a nidus for calcium-phosphate deposition in the ...

Automated Coronary Calcium Scoring using U-Net Models through Semi-supervised Learning on Non-Gated CT Scans [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Every year, thousands of innocent people die due to heart attacks. Often undiagnosed heart attacks can hit people by surprise since many current medical plans don't cover the costs to require the searching of calcification on these scans. Only if someone is suspected to have a heart problem, a gated CT scan is taken, otherwise, there's no way for the ...
