Induction of calcification by serum depletion in cell culture: a model for focal calcification in aortas related to atherosclerosis

BACKGROUND: Since aortic calcification has been shown to initiate in the lower zone of well-thickened plaques (LZP) adjacent to the aortic media of rabbits fed supplemental cholesterol diets, a restricted supply of serum to vascular cells could play a role in vascular calcification.
