Imbalance of Endothelium-derived Relaxing and Contracting Factors: A New Concept in Hypertension? [PDF]
The endothelium has a strategical anatomical position between the circulating blood and vascular smooth muscle cells. It has recently been recognized that endothelial cells play an important regulatory role in the circulation.

Statins inhibited erythropoietin-induced proliferation of rat vascular smooth muscle cells [PDF]
Erythropoietin (EPO) directly stimulates the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and this is believed to be one of the mechanisms of vascular access failure of hemodialysis patients. However, precise mechanisms of the EPO-induced proliferation

The Bone-Vascular Axis: A Key Player in Chronic Kidney Disease Associated Vascular Calcification
Background: The bone-vascular axis plays a key role in the pathogenesis of vascular calcification (VC) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Understanding and managing the role of the bone-vascular axis in CKD-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD)

Cytoglobin Expression Is Induced in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Through Endothelial Cell-Derived Notch Signaling: Implications of a Protective Role in Blood Vessel Function [PDF]
Communication between endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells is required for normal blood vessel formation and function. My research focuses on understanding the molecular signaling pathways that govern cell-cell communication and maintain vascular ...

Phosphate regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell calcification.
Vascular calcification is a common finding in atherosclerosis and a serious problem in diabetic and uremic patients. Because of the correlation of hyperphosphatemia and vascular calcification, the ability of extracellular inorganic phosphate levels to ...
