"[In vivo, AST-120 treatment of CKD mice (1) improved vascular relaxation (72% vs. 48% maximal relaxation in treated vs. untreated mice, p < 0.001), (2) reduced aortic VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression, (3) decreased aorta systolic expansion rate (9 � 3% CKD vs. 14 � 3% CKD + AST-120, p < 0.02), and (4) prevented the increase in pulse wave velocity (3.56 � 0.17 m/s CKD vs. 3.10 � 0.08 m/s CKD + AST-120, p < 0.006).].
