Rothwell S, Ng I, Shalchy-Tabrizi S, Kalinowski P, Taha O, Paris I, et al.
Front Physiol . 2025 Mar; 15:1488248. PMID: 40034369
Introduction: Mitochondrial dysfunction promotes vascular aging and disease through diverse mechanisms beyond metabolic supply, including calcium and radical signaling and inflammation. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication by the POLG-encoded mitochondrial DNA...

Kim B, Molina R, Jensen G, Poburko D
Cell Calcium . 2021 Mar; 96:102369. PMID: 33677175
Vascular smooth muscle cells are unusual in that differentiated, contractile cells possess the capacity to "de-differentiate" into a synthetic phenotype that is characterized by being replicative, secretory, and migratory. One...

Pauls A, Sandhu V, Young D, Nevay D, Yeung D, Sirrs S, et al.
Mitochondrion . 2020 Jun; 53:194-202. PMID: 32502631
Animal studies suggest that decreased vascular mitochondrial DNA copy number can promote hypertension. We conducted a chart review of blood pressure and hemodynamics in patients with either mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic...
