Calcified apoptotic vesicles from PROCR+ fibroblasts initiate heterotopic ossification
Abstract Heterotopic ossification (HO) comprises the abnormal formation of ectopic bone in extraskeletal soft tissue. The factors that initiate HO remain elusive. Herein, we found that calcified apoptotic vesicles (apoVs) led to increased calcification and stiffness of tendon extracellular matrix (E...
