<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; color: #4472c4; mso-themecolor: accent1;">Research overview</span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thirty million people in the United States are estimated to have chronic kidney disease (CKD). In patients with CKD, arterial calcification (pathological deposition of calcium phosphate salts into the arterial walls) is common, with a prevalence approaching 80%, and may contribute to their high cardiovascular mortality. The long-term goal of our research program is to understand the pathophysiology of arterial calcification and to develop new treatment strategies for it.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our research program includes: 1) the role of calciprotein particles (CPPs) in the development of arterial calcification. CPPs are nanoparticles that are composed of calcium phosphate crystals and calcification inhibitors. They are thought to mediate the transport and clearance of excess calcium and phosphate in circulation. Using a new, microplate -based, dynamic light scattering assay, we measured both the size of secondary CPPs and transformation time and investigate the role of CPPs in arterial calcification using human vascular smooth muscle cells and CKD patient cohorts. 2) the role of cellular interaction in arterial calcification. Studying the paracrine signaling between endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells will help identify novel therapeutic targets that attenuate vascular calcification without adverse effects on bone mineralization.</p>

Biography

<p>Wei Chen, MD, is an attending physician and Associate Professor, Medicine (Nephrology) and Developmental &amp; Molecular Biology at Montefiore Einstein. Dr. Chen&rsquo;s clinical focus is in the treatment of kidney disease, kidney stones and vascular calcification, as well as dialysis.</p><p>After completing her Bachelor of Science in biology at Saint John&rsquo;s University, Dr. Chen pursued her Doctor of Medicine at Renaissance School of Medicine Stony Brook University, completing it in 2008. She came to Einstein for her internship and residency in internal medicine from 2008 to 2011, then continued at Einstein to complete a three-year nephrology fellowship as well as her Master of Science in clinical research methods in 2014.</p><p>Dr. Chen&rsquo;s research studies vascular calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease using bench-to-bedside translational approaches. She has shared her research through several peer-reviewed publications, abstracts, editorials, book chapters and regional, national and international presentations.</p><p>Dr. Chen is board certified in Internal Medicine and Nephrology by the American Board of Internal Medicine. She is a Fellow of the American Society of Nephrology and a member of several professional organizations including the American Heart Association, the North American Vascular Biology Organization and the Chinese American Society of Nephrology. In 2019, she was recognized at Montefiore Einstein with the Department of Medicine Rising Star award. In 2022, she was honored as a Department of Medicine Faculty Scholar.</p>
