Abstract
Junctional adhesion molecules are transmembrane proteins that belong to the immunoglobulin superfamily. In addition to their localization in close proximity to the tight junctions in endothelial and epithelial cells, junctional adhesion molecules are also expressed in circulating cel...

Abstract
Vascular calcification increasingly afflicts our aging, dysmetabolic population. Once considered only a passive process of dead and dying cells, vascular calcification has now emerged as a highly regulated form of biomineralization organized by collagenous and elastin extracellular m...

Abstract
Adiponectin is a protein secreted by adipose tissue. Unlike other adipocytokines produced by adipose tissue, adiponectin appears to have anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and anti-atherogenic properties. Although secreted solely by adipose tissue, plasma levels of adiponectin are generally negativel...

Abstract
Vascular calcification often associates with bone-cartilage formation. Artery sclerotic lesions accompany the expression of bone matrix proteins such as osteopontin, osteocalcin and matrix Gla protein and transcription factors including Runx2, osterix and Sox9. These lesions also express BMP, osteop...
