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 ...
Mönckeberg's sclerosis – is the artery the only target of calcification?
(2005)
Abstract
Background
Since its first description, Mönckeberg's sclerosis has only been related to arterial media calcification, ...
Osteogenic gene markers are epigenetically reprogrammed during contractile-to-calcifying vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype transition
(2020-02-01)
The understanding of vascular calcification-based mechanism is an urgent pending task in vascular biology and this prompted us to better address this issue by investigating whether DNA methylation mechanism might drive ...
Vascular action of bisphosphonates: In vitro effect of alendronate on the regulation of cellular events involved in vessel pathogenesis
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-11)
In this work we investigate whether, despite the procalcific action of alendronate on bone, the drug would be able to regulate in vitro the main cellular events that take part in atherosclerotic lesion generation. Using ...
Calcifications of the Thoracic Aorta on Extended Non-Contrast-Enhanced Cardiac CT
(Public Library of Science, 2014-10)
BACKGROUND: The presence of calcified atherosclerosis in different vascular beds has been associated with a higher risk of mortality. Thoracic aorta calcium (TAC) can be assessed from computed tomography (CT) scans, ...
Updating the role of matrix metalloproteinases in mineralized tissue and related diseases
(Faculdade De Odontologia De Bauru - USP, 2019)
Abstract Bone development and healing processes involve a complex cascade of biological events requiring well-orchestrated synergism with bone cells, growth factors, and other trophic signaling molecules and cellular ...
