Abstract
DBA/2NCrj and BALB/c AnNCrj mice 4, 8 and 35 weeks of age were examined for calcified lesions. DBA/2NCrj mice showed high incidences of grossly detectable cardiac calcification and focal aortic calcification with arteriosclerotic changes within 8 weeks of age. The incidences in BALB/cAnNCrj mice were low and not age-related. DBA/2NCrj mice can be a useful model for cardiovascular calcification.
