Orriss, I., Bourne, L. E., Patel, J. J., Davies, B. K., Neven, E., Verhulst, A., D'Haese, P. C., PD Wheeler-Jones, C., & Orriss, I. R. (in press). N-acetylcysteine (NAC) differentially affects arterial medial calcification and bone formation: the role of L-cysteine and hydrogen sulphide. Journal of Cellular Physiology, https://doi.org/10.1002/jcp.30605

Arterial medial calcification (AMC) is the deposition of calcium phosphate in the arteries. AMC is widely thought to share similarities with physiological bone formation; however, emerging evidence suggests several key differences between these proce...
