Abstract
null Background and aims null Vascular calcification is prevalent in clinical states characterized by low-grade chronic inflammation, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD). Calciprotein particles (CPP) are calcium phosphate-containing nano-aggregates, which have been found in the blood of CKD patients and appear pro-inflammatory null in vitro . The interplay of CPPs and inflammatory cytokines with regard to the calcification of vascular smooth...
