Summary

Automatically generated

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Vascular calcification contributes substantially to the burden of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This protocol describes a simple method to quantify vascular smooth muscle cell-mediated calcium precipitation in vitro by fluorescent imaging.
