- Title
The Impact of Interleukin-18 and High-Mobility Group Box 1 Protein Signaling in Aortic Valve Calcification.

Lazaros, George; Antonopoulos, Alexios S.; Tousoulis, Dimitris
- Abstract
The article discusses research being done on aortic valve calcification. It references the study "The Role of High Mobility Group Box 1 Protein in Interleukin-18-Induced Myofibroblastic Transition of Valvular Interstitial Cells," by B. Wang et al. in the 2016 issue. The variables considered include the correlation of higher levels of interleukin-1 and high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) in human calcific aorta valves, the role of HMGB1 in hyperplasia and inflammation, and caspase 1.
