摘要: BECAUSE adenosine triphosphate (ATP) has been found in cartilage and because this compound markedly influences calcification, it suggested that ATP may be an important intermediate calcification1,3. Furthermore, suggested4 mitochondria are involved bone mineralization these organelles5 can concentrate calcium ions a process dependent on ATP.
