THE ROLE OF PARICALCITOL ON PROTEINURIA
Journal of Renal Care, 2011SUMMARYParicalcitol is a synthetic vitamin D analogue acting on vitamin D receptor (VDR). The result is inhibition of PTH synthesis and secretion. Paricalcitol appears also to block the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system. We evaluated the role of paricalcitol in the management of proteinuria of various aetiology.

The Impact of Paricalcitol on Left Ventricular Hypertrophy
Cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality are significantly higher in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Mineral metabolism disorders, such as hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia, and vitamin D deficiency, have been deeply associated not only with bone disease, but also with vascular calcification and CV disease.

Paricalcitol attenuates cyclosporine-induced kidney injury in rats
Despite its benefits, the clinical use of cyclosporine A (CsA) is limited by its nephrotoxic properties. Because paricalcitol (19-nor-1,25-hydroxyvitamin D2) has renoprotective effects, we tested whether it can blunt renal dysfunction and fibrosis in a ...

Efficacy and safety of paricalcitol in children with stages 3 to 5 chronic kidney disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Elevated intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels can contribute to morbidity and mortality in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We evaluated the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety of oral paricalcitol in reducing iPTH levels in
