Atractylenolide 1, a natural active ingredient extracted from Atractylodes macrocephala, has been proved to have good anti-inflammatory and anti fibrosis effects. Osteogenic changes induced by inflamm
Uremic media calcification is not only driven by systemic factors such as hyperphosphatemia, but also crticially dependent on vascular smooth muscle cells per se. We hypothesized that the different de
