Effect of paricalcitol and calcitriol on aortic wall remodeling in uninephrectomized ApoE knockout mice
Despite an only minor reduction in the glomerular filtration rate, uninephrectomy (UNX) markedly accelerates the rate of growth of atherosclerotic plaques in ApoE−/− mice. It has been suggested that vitamin D receptor (VDR) activation exerts an antiproliferative effect on vascular smooth muscle cell...
