ABSTRACT
AIM: To investigate the effect of taurine on calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).METHODS: Calcified VSMCs of rat in vitro were induced by ?-glycerophosphate. Cellular calcium content,alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activities and accumulation were measured. DNA synthesis were evaluated by -thymidine (-TdR) incorporation. RESULTS: Calcium content,ALP activities and uptake of calcified VSMCs stimulated by taurine (5-20 mmol/L) were greatly decreased in a concentration-dependent manner as compared with calcified group ( P
