Vinpocetine Attenuates the Osteoblastic Differentiation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells.
Vascular calcification is an active process of osteoblastic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells; however, its definite mechanism remains unknown. Vinpocetine, a derivative of the alkaloid vincamine, has been demonstrated to inhibit the high glucose-induced proliferation of vascular smoot...
