Effect of Early and Delayed Commencement of Paricalcitol in Combination with Enalapril on the Progression of Experimental Polycystic Kidney Disease
Vitamin D secosteroids are intranuclear regulators of cellular growth and suppress the renin-angiotensin system. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that the vitamin D receptor agonist, paricalcitol (PC), either alone or with enalapril (E) (an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor), r...
