Abstract:

Vascular calcification (VC) is an important factor for the increase of both incidence of cardiovascular events and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Previous studies have shown that macrophages played a key regulatory role in the occurrence, development, and regression of VC. However, the role and mechanism of macrophages in VC of CKD patients are not fully understood. This article reviewed the progress of research on the role and mechanism of macrophages in CKD-related VC with the aim of providing new ideas for the prevention and treatment of VC in CKD patients.

Key words: Macrophage, Vascular calcification, Chronic kidney disease
