The Contribution of Extracellular Vesicles From Senescent Endothelial and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells to Vascular Calcification [PDF]
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Vascular calcification is an irreversible pathological process associated with a loss of vascular wall function. This process occurs as a result of aging and age-related diseases, such as cardiovascular and chronic kidney diseases, and leads to ...

Association of Serum Phosphate and Related Factors in ESRD-Related Vascular Calcification [PDF]
International Journal of Nephrology, 2011 Vascular calcification is common in ESRD patients and is important in increasing mortality from cardiovascular complications in these patients. Hyperphosphatemia related to chronic kidney disease is increasingly known as major stimulus for vascular ...

Shifting osteogenesis in vascular calcification [PDF]
JCI Insight, 2021 Transitions between cell fates commonly occur in development and disease. However, reversing an unwanted cell transition in order to treat disease remains an unexplored area. Here, we report a successful process of guiding ill-fated transitions toward normalization in vascular calcification.

Mechanisms of Vascular Calcification [PDF]
Advances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2007 Vascular calcification is highly prevalent and correlated with high rates of cardiovascular mortality in chronic kidney disease patients. Recent evidence suggests that mineral, hormonal, and metabolic imbalances that promote phenotype change in vascular cells as well as deficiencies in specific mineralization inhibitory pathways may be important ...

Vascular calcification: the role of microRNAs [PDF]
Biomolecular Concepts, 2017 AbstractVascular calcification represents the deposition of calcium phosphate salts in the tunica media of the vascular wall. It occurs during aging but is accelerated and pronounced in patients with diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease (CKD) and established cardiovascular disease.

Clinicopathological Features of Anticancer Drug-induced Kidney Injury [PDF]
Zhongguo quanke yixue, 2022 Background The prevalence of anticancer drug-induced kidney injury is increasing, but related renal pathology studies are still rare. Objective To analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with anticancer drug-related kidney injury ...

The Thermodynamics of Medial Vascular Calcification [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Medial vascular calcification (MVC) is a degenerative process that involves the deposition of calcium in the arteries, with a high prevalence in chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes, and aging. Calcification is the process of precipitation largely of calcium phosphate, governed by the laws of thermodynamics that should be acknowledged in studies of ...

Osteoporosis and vascular calcifications
Endocrine Connections, 2023 In post-menopausal women, aged individuals, and patients with diabetes mellitus or chronic renal disease, bone mineral density (BMD) decreases while the vasculature accumulates arterial calcifications (ACs). AC can be found in the tunica intima and/or in the tunica media.
