Alveolar macrophages acquire 1 alpha-hydroxylase activity in inflammation, and thereby metabolize 25 hydroxyvitamin D3 (25 D3) to the active metabolite, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25 D3, calcitriol). Calcitriol is a potent differentiation agent that modulates mononuclear phagocyte activation
BACKGROUND
The blunted immune response upon stimulation in chronic renal failure (CRF) is often coupled to a baseline inflammatory status which has been related to atherogenesis. Uremic biologic fluids and several specific uremic retention solutes alter cell-mediated immune responses, as well as the
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a complex disease posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Metabonomics may aid in the diagnosis of AAA, determination of individualized risk, discovery of therapeutic targets, and improve understanding of pathogenesis. A systematic review of the diversity and
