Pathogenesis and Mechanisms of Mitral Annular Calcification

July 22, 2024 updated by: Amir Lerman, Mayo Clinic
Researchers are testing blood or mitral valve tissue to better understand the reasons why Mitral Annular Calcification (MAC) develops in patients with heart disease.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

The aim is to test the hypothesis that Endothelial Progenitor Cells osteoblastic phenotype (EPC-OCNs) play a significant role in the process of Mitral Annular Calcification (MAC) as prognostic markers of calcific cardiac valves.
