Changes in microparticle profiles by vitamin D receptor activation in chronic kidney disease – a randomized trial

Abstract Background Microparticles (MPs) are biomarkers and mediators of disease through their expression of surface receptors, reflecting activation or stress in their parent cells. Endothelial markers, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1, are implicated in atherosclerosis and associated with cardiovascular risk. Ch...
