Targeting Endothelial Dysfunction in Vascular Complications Associated with Diabetes
Cardiovascular complications associated with diabetes remain a significant health issue in westernized societies. Overwhelming evidence from clinical and laboratory investigations have demonstrated that these cardiovascular complications are initiated by a dysfunctional vascular endothelium. Indeed, endothelial dysfunction is one of the key events that occur during diabetes, leading to the acce...
متن کاملMiR-103 regulates the angiogenesis of ischemic stroke rats by targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)
Objective(s): To investigate the effect of miR-103 on the angiogenesis of ischemic stroke rats via targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) at the molecular level. Materials and Methods: Rat models had received the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) or sham operation before grouping, and cell models of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) were performed. FITC-dextran, matrigel, and ...
متن کاملPrognostic value of coronary vascular endothelial dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Whether patients at increased risk can be identified from a relatively low-risk population by coronary vascular function testing remains unknown. We investigated the relationship between coronary endothelial function and the occurrence of acute unpredictable cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unstable angina) in patients with and without c...
متن کاملGlucocorticoid excess induces superoxide production in vascular endothelial cells and elicits vascular endothelial dysfunction.
Glucocorticoid (GC) excess often elicits serious adverse effects on the vascular system, such as hypertension and atherosclerosis, and effective prophylaxis for these complications is limited. We sought to reveal the mechanism underlying GC-induced vascular complications. Responses in forearm blood flow to reactive hyperemia in 20 GC-treated patients were significantly decreased to 43+/-8.9% (m...
متن کاملTargeting miR-200c to Ameliorate Diabetes-Induced Endothelial Dysfunction
Endothelial dysfunction is one of the earliest manifestations of diabetes that can lead to numerous debilitating microand macrovascular complications (1,2). Identifying factors that mediate or augment endothelial dysfunction in diabetes can lead to the development of much-needed therapies that target early stages of various vascular complications and thereby prevent further progression. Chronic...
