Brief Summary
The primary hypothesis of this proposal is that chronic kidney disease (CKD) and treatment with calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are each associated with the release of endothelial microparticles into the plasma.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in Vascular Function
This will be measured with flow-mediated dilation and evaluate percent change from baseline over minutes.
percent change from baseline over 2 minutes
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Characterization of Microparticle source from blood analysis
Single time point
Study Arms (3)
Healthy control
Healthy control that meets inclusion/exclusion criteria. Single blood draw and flow-mediated dilation (FMD).
Stage III or IV CKD patients
Stage III or IV CKD patients that meets inclusion/exclusion criteria. Single blood draw and flow-mediated dilation (FMD).
Post-transplant patients
Stage III or IV CKD Post-transplant patients that meets inclusion/exclusion criteria. Single blood draw and flow-mediated dilation (FMD).
Interventions
Flow-mediated dilation used to measure vascular function. The test is minimally invasive, with only a slight discomfort due to the inflation of the arm cuff.
single blood draw of approximately 45 mL.
