Atorvastatin reduces calcification in valve interstitial cells < i > via < /i > the NF- κB signalling pathway by promoting Atg5-mediated autophagy
In conclusion, atorvastatin inhibited the NF- κB signalling pathway by upregulating autophagy, thereby alleviating valve interstitial cell calcification, which was conducive to improving AVC.
