Targeted therapies for #VascularCalcification remain limited. This study shows that LINE-1 inhibition by nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors reduces vascular calcification and offers a potential therapeutic approach.

#LINE1 upregulation is identified as a driver of #VascularCalcification; silencing LINE1 or using #NRTIs suppresses cGAS‑STING signaling and mitigates VC—highlighting LINE1 inhibition and NRTIs as promising therapeutic strategies.
