The hypothesis that increased oxidative stress and its sequalae is a major contributor to increased atherosclerosis and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality found in uremia is proposed and it is proposed that retained uremic solutes such as beta-2 microglobulin, advanced glycosylated end products, cysteine, and homocysteine further contribute to the pro-atherogenic milieu of Uremia.
