Role and mechanism of G9A-BMP2 in calcification-induced formation of unstable plaque
Our findings indicate that G9A amplifies vascular calcification through the activation of Bmp2 signaling, a fundamental mediator of vascular calcification. The relationship between vascular calcification and the emergence of unstable plaques may be intricately associated with histone methylation.
