ATP and arterial calcification

Abstract: Background Arterial calcification (AC) is a major health problem associated with extreme morbidity and a shortened survival. It is currently without any effective treatment. ATP and the purinergic system in general are now emerging as being important in the pathogenesis of AC and potentially provide a new focus for novel therapies.

“…There is recent evidence for the involvement of CD73 in regulating arterial calcification, a pathological process characterized by calcium deposition in the intimal or medial layers of the vessel wall, which is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events [135,136]. In particular, a correlation between mutations of the NT5E gene, resulting in non-functional CD73, and the presence of symptomatic arterial and distal joint calcifications has been reported [137,138].…”

“…ATP binding enhanced the activity of ClC-5, the transporter mutated in Dent disease, a disease affecting the renal proximal tubule [405]. Arterial calcification is prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease and ATP signalling appears to be involved (see review by [90]). …”

“…Purinergic signalling plays a number of roles in the cardiovascular system (see review (Burnstock & Ralevic, 2014)). VSMCs express multiple P2 receptor subtypes (Wang et al, 2002) and, in recent years, several investigations have examined the role of purinergic signalling in the different forms of vascular calcification (Fish et al, 2013). However, they provide conflicting evidence as to whether extracellular nucleotides are harmful or protective.…”
