Borland, S. J., Morris, T. G., Borland, S. C., Morgan, M. R., Francis, S. E., Merry, C. L., & Canfield, A. E. (2017). Regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell calcification by syndecan-4/FGF-2/PKCα signalling and cross-talk with TGFβ. Cardiovascular Research, 113(13), 1639-1652. https://doi.org/10.1093/cvr/cvx178

Aims
Vascular calcification is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) plays an instructive role in osteogenesis and bone development, but its role in vascular calcification was unknown. Therefore, we investigate...
