This study shows that smooth muscle cell estrogen receptor alpha promotes arterial stiffness in both female and male mice when estradiol levels are low, through sex-specific mechanisms.

This study shows rapamycin reduces arterial mineral density and improves vascular structure in Mgp-/- mice with medial arterial calcification, though calcification volume remains unchanged.

The paper develops an integrated preclinical atherosclerosis database by extracting data from mouse models and provides tools for standardized analysis and integration with transcriptomics software.
