Protective effect of endoplasmic reticulum stress on calcification of VSMCs induced by high glucose and its effect on expression of GRP78, CHOP, and Caspase-12

This article investigates the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in high-glucose-induced vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) calcification and to explore its effects on the expression of GRP78, CHOP, and Caspase-12.VSMCs were treated with high glucose (35 mmoL/L) to induce diabetes to see w...
