Altered MicroRNA Expression Is Responsible for the Pro‐Osteogenic Phenotype of Interstitial Cells in Calcified Human Aortic Valves

BACKGROUND: The transition of aortic valve interstitial cells (AVICs) to myofibroblastic and osteoblast‐like phenotypes plays a critical role in calcific aortic valve disease progression. Several microRNAs (miRs) are implicated in stem cell differentiation into osteoblast. We hypothesized that an ep...
