Circulation
. 2011 Sep;
124(17):1838-47.
PMID: 21947295
Background: A variety of studies carried out using either human subjects or laboratory animals suggest that vitamin D and its analogues possess important beneficial activity in the cardiovascular system. Using...

PMID: 20813185
We have explored the mechanism(s) underlying 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D's (1,25(OH)(2)D) suppression of agonist-induced vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation. Quiescent cultured adult rat VSMC were treated with 1,25(OH)(2)D for 48h...

PMID: 19961935
1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25 (OH)2 D) and its less hypercalcemic analogues have been shown to inhibit the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) in culture. However, the mechanism(s) underlying...

. 2009 May;
119(6):1647-58.
PMID: 19436108
In various mammalian species, including humans, water restriction leads to an acute increase in urinary sodium excretion. This process, known as dehydration natriuresis, helps prevent further accentuation of hypernatremia and...

. 2009 Jan;
53(3):549-55.
PMID: 19139378
Increased B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) gene expression is regarded as one of the hallmarks of cardiac myocyte hypertrophy. Here we demonstrate that both basal- and endothelin-1-dependent stimulation of human (h)...

. 2008 Oct;
52(6):1106-12.
PMID: 18936343
The liganded vitamin D receptor (VDR) is thought to play an important role in controlling cardiac function. Specifically, this system has been implicated as playing an antihypertrophic role in the...

. 2005 Dec;
47(2):252-8.
PMID: 16365184
We have demonstrated recently that endothelin (ET) stimulates rat aortic smooth muscle cell proliferation through an extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-dependent mechanism. Approximately 70% of ET-dependent [3H]-thymidine incorporation in these cells...

PMID: 15837528
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, through association with its cognate nuclear receptor, has been shown to have important effects in the cardiovascular and renal systems. We have shown previously that the liganded vitamin...
