Iron and vascular calcification. Is there a link? [PDF]

open access: yesNephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2011
Iron deficiency is frequently seen in patients with end-stage renal disease, particularly in those treated by dialysis, this is because of an impairment in gastrointestinal absorption and ongoing blood losses or alternatively, due to an impaired capacity to mobilize iron from its stores, called functional iron deficiency.

Relationship between serum expressions of miR-129 and miR-205 and vascular calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease without dialysis

open access: yesLinchuang shenzangbing zazhi, 2022
ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between serum levels of miR-129 and miR-205 and vascular calcification in non-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).MethodsFrom June 2020 to January 2021,54 CKD inpatients were selected as research ...

Mild and moderate pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease is associated with increased coronary artery calcium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BackgroundIt is increasingly evident that patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are more likely to die from heart disease than kidney failure. This study evaluated whether pre- dialysis CKD is an independent risk factor for coronary artery calcium ...

Mechanisms of the Osteogenic Switch of Smooth Muscle Cells in Vascular Calcification: WNT Signaling, BMPs, Mechanotransduction, and EndMT

open access: yesBioengineering, 2020
Characterized by the hardening of arteries, vascular calcification is the deposition of hydroxyapatite crystals in the arterial tissue. Calcification is now understood to be a cell-regulated process involving the phenotypic transition of vascular smooth ...

Vascular calcification: Mechanisms of vascular smooth muscle cell calcification [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2015
Vascular calcification is highly prevalent and, when present, is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events. Vascular smooth muscle cells play an integral role in mediating vessel calcification by undergoing differentiation to osteoblast-like cells and generating matrix vesicles that serve as a nidus for calcium-phosphate deposition in the ...

Bioengineering facets of the tumor microenvironment in 3D tumor models: insights into cellular, biophysical and biochemical interactions

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

Vascular Calcification: Current Genetics Underlying This Complex Phenomenon

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2017
Objective: Vascular calcification is the consequence of the complex interaction between genetic, environmental, and vascular factors, which ultimately lead to the deposition of calcium in the tunica intima (atherosclerotic calcification) or tunica media (

Ubiquitin-specific protease 47 is associated with vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease by regulating osteogenic transdifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells

open access: yesRenal Failure, 2022
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has recently become a serious health and social concern. Vascular calcification, a common complication of CKD, is a risk factor that increases the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular events in patients with CKD. However,

The connections between vascular calcification and bone health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Vascular calcification, bone loss and increased fracture risk are age-associated disorders. Several epidemiological studies have suggested a relationship between vascular calcification, impaired bone metabolism and increased mortality.
