Activating transcription factor 4 regulates stearate-induced vascular calcification
Previously, we reported that stearate, a saturated fatty acid, promotes osteoblastic differentiation and mineralization of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). In this study, we examined the molecular mechanisms by which stearate promotes vascular calcification. ATF4 is a pivotal transcription facto...
