Abstract excerpt
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated phenotypic switching of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is key to vascular calcification (VC) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Studies have shown that activation/upregulation of SIRT1 has a protective effect on CKD-VC. Meanwhile, although terpinen-4-ol has been shown to exert a protective effect against cardiovascular disease, its role and underlying...
