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.

Correction: GGCX and VKORC1 inhibit osteocalcin endocrine functions [PDF]
Vol. 208, No. 6, March 16, 2015. [10.1083/jcb.201409111][1]. The authors noticed a mistake in the labeling of the genotyping primers in Fig. S1 A and Table S1. In Fig. S1 A, the primers P1 and P2 are actually flanking the 5′loxP site region.

ABSTRACT Weight‐loss treatment is crucial for individuals with obesity to prevent various complications. The role of Immune cells in obesity has been recently recognized, whereas its translation into therapy requires identifying key target genes. We performed Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to assess causal relationships between expression ...

ABSTRACT Single gene mutations are increasingly being adopted as clinical biomarkers for the optimal application of various therapeutic areas (such as cancer and cardiovascular disease). A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), the most common type of genetic variation in human populations, can affect the abundance and function of gene products at the ...

Grapefruit juice is a well‐established inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4, but its effects on other CYP enzymes or organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) are not fully characterized in humans. Recently, lingonberry powder was shown to induce murine CYP enzymes. We investigated the effects of lingonberry powder and grapefruit juice on seven

VKORC1 ER mislocalization causes rare disease
In this issue of Blood , Czogalla et al identify that the rare heritable hemorrhaging disease, vitamin K–dependent clotting factor deficiency type 2 (VKCFD2), is caused by mislocalization of vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).[1][1] ![Figure][2 ...
