Vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease

Journal of Bone and Mineral Metabolism

Abstract

Vascular calcification is often encountered in advanced atherosclerotic lesions and is a common consequence of aging. Calcification of the coronary arteries has been positively correlated with coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden, increased risk of myocardial infarction, and plaque instability. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have two to five times more coronary artery calcification than healthy age-matched individuals. Vascular calcification is a strong prognostic marker of cardiovascular disease mortality in CKD patients. Vascular calcification has long been considered to be a passive, degenerative, and end-stage process of atherosclerosis and inflammation. However, recent evidence indicates that bone matrix proteins such as osteopontin, matrix Gla protein (MGP), and osteocalcin are expressed in calcified atherosclerotic lesions, and that calcium-regulating hormones such as vitamin D3 and parathyroid hormone-related protein regulate vascular calcification in in vitro vascular calcification models based on cultured aortic smooth muscle cells. These findings suggest that vascular calcification is an actively regulated process similar to osteogenesis, and that bone-associated proteins may be involved in the development o...Continue Reading

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.

Cardiovascular Inflammation

Inflammation plays a significant role in the development of cardiovascular diseases, an understanding of these endogenous processes is critical for evaluating the risks and potential treatment strategies. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular inflammation here.

Atherosclerosis Disease Progression

Atherosclerosis is the buildup of plaque on artery walls, causing stenosis which can eventually lead to clinically apparent cardiovascular disease. Find the latest research on atherosclerosis disease progression here.
