Endothelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Vascular Calcification of Ins2(Akita/+) Mice

Endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) drives endothelium to contribute to normal development and disease processes. Here, we report that EndMTs occur in the diabetic endothelium of Ins2(Akita/wt) mouse, and show that induction of sex determining region Y-box 2 (Sox2) is a mediator of excess BMP...
