Abstract excerpt
Background Posttranslational protein modification with O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is linked to high glucose levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and may alter cellular function. We sought to elucidate the involvement of O-GlcNAc modification in endothelial dysfunction in patients with T2DM. Methods and Results Freshly isolated endothelial cells obtained by J-wire biopsy from a forearm vein of...
