Vitamin K and vascular calcification [PDF]
Current Opinion in Nephrology & Hypertension, 2021 Purpose of review Vascular calcification is a common and important cardiovascular risk factor in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Recent advances in the understanding of the biology of vascular calcification implicate vitamin K-dependent proteins as important regulators in this process.

The Cell Origin and Role of Osteoclastogenesis and Osteoblastogenesis in Vascular Calcification
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021 Arterial calcification refers to the abnormal deposition of calcium salts in the arterial wall, which results in vessel lumen stenosis and vascular remodeling.

MicroRNAs Regulate Vascular Medial Calcification [PDF]
, 2014 Vascular calcification is highly prevalent in patients with coronary artery disease and, when present, is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events, including an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality.

Bone metabolism and vascular calcification [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2007 Osteoporosis and atherosclerosis are chronic degenerative diseases which have been considered to be independent and whose common characteristic is increasing incidence with age. At present, growing evidence indicates the existence of a correlation between cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis, irrespective of age.

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.

Phosphate, oxidative stress, and nuclear factor-κB activation in vascular calcification [PDF]
, 2011 Phosphate-induced vascular calcification, characterized by induction of osteogenic programs, mineral vesicle release, and apoptosis, is prevalent in patients with kidney disease. Zhao et al.

Associations of Perirenal Fat Thickness with Renal and Systemic Calcified Atherosclerosis. [PDF]
, 2020 BackgroundWe investigated associations between perirenal fat thickness and atherosclerotic calcification in six different vascular beds.MethodsUsing a community-based cohort (n=3,919), perirenal fat thickness was estimated from computed tomography scans.

Alkaline phosphatases in the complex chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorders [PDF]
, 2018 Alkaline phosphatases (APs) remove the phosphate (dephosphorylation) needed in multiple metabolic processes (from many molecules such as proteins, nucleotides, or pyrophosphate). Therefore, APs are important for bone mineralization but paradoxically they
