Role of UBIAD1 in Intracellular Cholesterol Metabolism and Vascular Cell Calcification.
Vascular calcification is an important risk factor associated with mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease. Intracellular cholesterol metabolism is involved in the process of vascular cell calcification. In this study, we investigated the role of UbiA prenyltransferase domain containing...
