Notch1 inhibition may represent a target in calcific aortic valve disease; hypothesis-generating from Level 5 data, requires in vivo and clinical validation.
Notch1 mediates the pro-osteogenic response to TLR4 stimulation in human aortic valve interstitial cells via ERK1/2 and NF-κB pathways, highlighting a potential therapeutic target for calcific aortic valve disease.
Zeng et al. (2013) studied this question.
