Pseudoxanthoma elasticum-like papillary dermal elastolysis is a rare, benign, acquired, gradually-developing chronic elastic tissue disorder that almost exclusively affects post-menopausal women. It is essential to recognize this disease as it mimics the inherited pseudoxanthoma clinically. The pathophysiology behind this disease is multifactorial; it includes intrinsic skin aging, ultraviolet radiation exposure, and genetic components.

Ectopic calcification in the cardiovascular system adversely affects life prognosis. DBA/2 mice experience calcification owing to low expression of Abcc6 as observed in pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) patients; however, little is known about its characteristics as a calcification model. In this study, we explore the suitability of a DBA/2 sub-strain as a PXE-like tissue calcification model, and the effect of a bisphosphonate which prevents calcification of soft tissues in hypercalcemic models was evaluated.
