Comparison of the inhibition of high phosphate-induced smooth muscle cell calcification by Porphyra yezoensis and Astragalus polysaccharides

This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory effects of Porphyra yezoensis polysaccharides (PYP) and Astragalus polysaccharides (APS) with similar molecular weight (approximately 4 KDa) on high phosphate (Pi)-induced vascular calcification (VC) in rat thoracic aortic smooth muscle cells (A7r5) and...
