Treatment of vascular calcification [PDF]
Kidney International, 2008 A variety of potential therapies for vascular calcification, based either on the underlying biology or physical chemistry or solely on empiric observations in patients, may be effective but lack rigorous testing. Pasch et al. provide convincing evidence that sodium thiosulfate prevents medial vascular calcification in uremic rats.

Circulating microRNAs and vascular calcification in hemodialysis patients
Journal of International Medical Research, 2019 Objective Vascular calcification is common in chronic dialysis patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. However, the role of circulating microRNAs (miRs) in vascular calcification has rarely been investigated.

Vascular Calcification Mechanisms [PDF]
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2004 Vascular calcification is highly correlated with cardiovascular disease mortality, especially in patients with ESRD or diabetes. In addition to the devastating effects of inappropriate biomineralization seen in cardiac valvulopathies, calciphylaxis, and idiopathic arterial calcification, vascular calcification is now recognized as a marker of ...

Role of Glycosylation in Vascular Calcification [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Glycosylation is an important step in post-translational protein modification. Altered glycosylation results in an abnormality that causes diseases such as malignancy and cardiovascular diseases. Recent emerging evidence highlights the importance of glycosylation in vascular calcification.
