The role of sodium phosphate cotransporters in ectopic calcification [PDF]

open access: yesEndokrynologia Polska, 2019
Phosphate plays a critical role in many vital cellular processes. Deviations from normal serum phosphate levels, including alterations in the extracellular phosphate/pyrophosphate ratio, can cause severe consequences, such as ectopic calcification. Cellular phosphate levels are tightly controlled by sodium phosphate cotransporters, underscoring their ...
