Chronic Kidney Disease-Induced Arterial Media Calcification in Rats Prevented by Tissue Non-Specific Alkaline Phosphatase Substrate Supplementation Rather Than Inhibition of the Enzyme

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) suffer from arterial media calcification and a disturbed bone metabolism. Tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) hydrolyzes the calcification inhibitor pyrophosphate (PPi) into inorganic phosphate (Pi) and thereby stimulates arterial media calcifica...
