Lai C, Shao J, Behrmann A, Krchma K, Cheng S, Towler D
Endocrinology
. 2012 Jun;
153(8):3897-910.
PMID: 22685265
In LDLR(-/-) mice fed high-fat diabetogenic diets, osteogenic gene-regulatory programs are ectopically activated in vascular myofibroblasts and smooth muscle cells that promote arteriosclerotic calcium deposition. Msx2-Wnt signaling pathways previously identified...

J Am Soc Echocardiogr
. 2008 Apr;
21(8):954-60.
PMID: 18406574
Background: Osteopontin (OPN)-transgenic mice exhibit increased carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT), smooth muscle cell proliferation, and atheroma formation. Methods: An association of the human T-66G promoter variant with CIMT was...

Ann N Y Acad Sci
. 2007 Dec;
1117:40-50.
PMID: 18056036
Studies of fracture repair have revealed that paracrine endothelial-mesenchymal interactions direct bone formation that restores osseous integrity. Angiogenic growth factors and specific members of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family...

Al-Aly Z, Shao J, Lai C, Huang E, Cai J, Behrmann A, et al.
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol
. 2007 Oct;
27(12):2589-96.
PMID: 17932314
Objective: Aortic calcification is prevalent in type II diabetes (T2DM), enhancing morbidity and tracking metabolic syndrome parameters. Ldlr(-/-) mice fed high-fat "Westernized" diets (HFD) accumulate aortic calcium primarily in the...

Lai C, Seshadri V, Huang K, Shao J, Cai J, Vattikuti R, et al.
Circ Res
. 2006 May;
98(12):1479-89.
PMID: 16709900
Osteopontin (OPN) is a cytokine upregulated in diabetic vascular disease. To better understand its role in vascular remodeling, we assessed how OPN controls metalloproteinase (MMP) activation in aortic adventitial myofibroblasts...

Lai C, Bai S, Uthgenannt B, Halstead L, McLoughlin P, Schafer B, et al.
J Bone Miner Res
. 2005 Dec;
21(1):17-28.
PMID: 16355270
Unlabelled: FHL2, a molecule that interacts with many integrins and transcription factors, was found to play an important role in osteoblast differentiation. Overexpression of FHL2 increases the accumulation of osteoblast...

Lai C, Cheng S
J Bone Miner Res
. 2005 Jan;
20(2):330-40.
PMID: 15647827
Unlabelled: Both integrins and BMP-2 exert similar effects on osteoblasts. We examined the relationship between the alphav-containing integrins (alphavbeta) and BMP-2 in osteoblast function. BMP-2 stimulates alphavbeta expression. BMP-2 receptors...

J Biol Chem
. 2002 Feb;
277(18):15514-22.
PMID: 11854297
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) activates Ras/MAPK signaling in many cell types. Because TGF-beta and BMP-2 exert similar effects, we examined if this signaling is stimulated by both factors and...
