Serum levels of sclerostin as a potential biomarker in central arterial stiffness among hypertensive patients

BACKGROUND: Sclerostin is known to be a canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway inhibitor, while the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is proposed to be involved in the development of arterial stiffness. This study aims to investigate the relationship between serum sclerostin levels and carotid–femo...
