Natriuretic peptide receptor-C is up-regulated in the intima of advanced carotid artery atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
OBJECTIVE: Natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C/NPR-3) is a cell surface protein involved in vascular remodelling that is up-regulated in atherosclerosis. NPR-C expression has not been well characterized in human carotid artery occlusive lesions.

Physiologic intracranial calcifications incidentally detected on cone beam computed tomography

open access: yesOral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology, 2022
This study aims to determine the incidence of physiologic intracranial calcifications on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to contribute to the differentiation between physiologic and pathologic intracranial calcifications by sharing their characteristic appearances, with the largest number of patients in the literature and many different types ...

Physiologic and pathologic functions of the NPP nucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase family focusing on NPP1 in calcification

open access: yesPurinergic Signalling Purinergic Signalling, 2006
The catabolism of ATP and other nucleotides participates partly in the important function of nucleotide salvage by activated cells and also in removal or de novo generation of compounds including ATP, ADP, and adenosine that stimulate purinergic ...

Overview on hydrogen sulfide-mediated suppression of vascular calcification and hemoglobin/heme-mediated vascular damage in atherosclerosis

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2022
Vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques with hemorrhage considerably contribute to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Calcification is the main characteristic of advanced atherosclerotic lesions and calcified aortic valve disease (CAVD).

Positioning novel biologicals in CKD-mineral and bone disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD), the histologic bone lesions of chronic kidney disease (CKD), is now included in a wider syndrome with laboratory abnormalities of mineral metabolism and extra-skeletal calcifications or CKD-mineral and bone disorders (CKD-MBD),
