Vascular calcification in peritoneal dialysis patients
(Multimed Inc, 2008-03-01)
Vascular calcification ( VC) is being recognized as a common complication at all stages of chronic kidney disease, particularly in patients on dialysis. Traditional and nontraditional cardiovascular risk factors both appear ...
Regulation of the sodium-phosphate cotransporter Pit-1 and its role in vascular calcification
(2009)
Vascular calcification is caused by the deposition of basic calcium phosphate crystals in blood vessels, myocardium, and/or cardiac valves. Calcification decreases artery wall compliance, and arterial calcification is ...
Expression of gremlin, a bone morphogenetic protein antagonist, is associated with vascular calcification in uraemia
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2009)
Background. Vascular calcification has been widely recognized as a significant contributor to cardiovascular risk in patients with chronic kidney disease. Recent evidence suggests that BMP-7 decreases the vascular calcification ...
Organic anion transporter 5 renal expression and urinary excretion in rats with vascular calcification
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013-10)
It has been described renal damage in rats with vascular calcification. The organic anion transporter 5 (Oat5) is only expressed in kidney, and its urinary excretion was proposed as potential early biomarker of renal injury. ...
Beneficial role of the phytoestrogen genistein on vascular calcification
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017-12)
Although soy phytoestrogen are proposed to prevent or improve postmenopausal vascular and bone diseases, the currently available data are controversial and unclear. In this study we evaluated the molecular and biochemical ...
Pharmacokinetics of the antimicrobial drug Sulfanilamide is altered in a preclinical model of vascular calcification
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-12)
In vascular smooth muscle, calcium overload is linked to advancing age. The pharmacokinetics of Sulfanilamide (SA), a compound with antibacterial properties, was evaluated in a preclinical model of vascular calcification. ...

Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum: An Interesting Model to Evaluate Chronic Kidney Disease-Like Vascular Damage without Renal Disease
(Karger Publishers Open Access, 2020)
Background: Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE; OMIM
264800) is an inherited multisystem disorder associated with
accumulation of mineralized and fragmented elastic fibers
in the skin, vascular walls, and brush membrane in ...
In vitro effects of progesterone and the synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate on vascular remodeling
(Elsevier Science, 2019-08-01)
In this work we tested the hypothesis whether progesterone (Pg)or the synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) could beinvolved in the regulation of events involved in vascular remodeling.Results revealed an ...
