Both increased arterial stiffness and vascular endothelial dysfunction are evident in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, even early in the course of the disease when kidney function in preserved. Vascular dysfunction in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is thought to be related to vascular oxidative stress and inflammation, but direct evidence is lacking.
