The effects of experimental hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemia on macrovascular endothelial cell function
2019-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Endothelial dysfunction, characterised by decreased NO synthesis, is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular complications in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and insulin resistance. The dysfunctional endothelium exhibits impaired insulin-stimulated NO generation and vasodilatation, as well as increased pro-inflammatory and pro-atherogenic signalling, which promot...
