Vascular calcification is an active and modifiable process involved in many disease entities, including atherosclerosis, cardiac valve disease and calcific uremic arteriolopathy. It occurs with distinct characteristics at different sites in the vessel wall.

Recent evidence suggests that uremic vascular calcification is an active, cell-mediated process resembling osteogenesis in bone rather than passive precipitation. We identified increased expression of bone-associated proteins (osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, alkaline phosphatase, type I collagen) and the bone-specific transcription factor core-binding

Adipokines in vascular calcification
Clinica Chimica Acta, 2021Adipose tissue (AT), a critical endocrine gland, is capable of producing and secreting abundant adipokines. Adipokines act on distant or adjacent organ tissues via paracrine, autocrine, and endocrine mechanism, which play attractive roles in the regulation of glycolipid metabolism and inflammatory response. Increasing evidence shows that adipokines can

Accumulating evidence suggests that the high cardiovascular mortality observed in patients with end-stage renal disease is due in part to the deleterious effects of vascular calcification that develops over time on dialysis. This review focuses on recent cell biological and animal studies that have shed light on the mechanisms and regulators of ...

Imaging for Vascular Calcification
Seminars in Dialysis, 2017AbstractChronic decline in renal function is accompanied by deterioration of bone structure and function and progressive calcification of the vascular system. Both disease states have been linked with increased morbidity and mortality in chronic kidney disease.

Pathophysiology of Vascular Calcification
Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2015Vascular calcification can lead to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The initiating factors and clinical consequences depend on the underlying disease state and location of the calcification. The pathogenesis of vascular calcification is complex and involves a transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells to an osteo/chondrocytic cell that ...

Inflammation and Vascular Calcification
Blood Purification, 2005Both vascular calcification and inflammation are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In patients on dialysis, there is increased coronary artery and peripheral artery calcification compared to the general population. Both intimal (atherosclerotic) and medial calcification in CKD patients are associated with increased morbidity and ...

Vascular calcification in dermatopathology
The American Journal of Dermatopathology, 1979Calcification in cutaneous blood vessels is an uncommon finding in biopsies submitted for dermatopathological examination. Of 14 biopsy specimens showing the phenomenon that was studied by us, the greater number was from women who had a combination of severe diabetes, hypertension, and atherosclerosis.

Preventing vascular calcification
Science, 2016Vascular Disease The arterial calcification that develops in patients with the genetic disease ACDC (arterial calcification due to deficiency of CD73) leads to peripheral ischemia. Cells from these patients have increased levels of an enzyme that degrades pyrophosphate, a compound that inhibits calcification. Jin et al.

Vascular calcification is a pathological calcification process. Its pathogenesis involves active mineralization by chondrogenic and osteogenic cells. Since cartilaginous metaplasia has been found in several vascular diseases, this process may represent one of vascular remodeling in response to vascular injury.
