High levels of osteoprotegerin are associated with coronary artery calcification in patients suspected of a chronic coronary syndrome

Abstract Plasma osteoprotegerin (OPG) and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important regulators in the process of vascular calcification (VC). In population studies, high levels of OPG are associated with events. In animal studies, however, high OPG levels...
