Endothelial Dysfunction, Inflammation, and Apoptosis in Diabetes Mellitus
نویسندگان
چکیده
Endothelial dysfunction is regarded as an important factor in the pathogenesis of vascular disease in obesity-related type 2 diabetes. The imbalance in repair and injury (hyperglycemia, hypertension, dyslipidemia) results in microvascular changes, including apoptosis of microvascular cells, ultimately leading to diabetes related complications. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which the interplay between endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and apoptosis may cause (micro)vascular damage in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Nigella sativa seed decreases endothelial dysfunction in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat aorta
Objective: Diabetes is an important risk factor for cardiovascular events. The great percent of morbidity in patients with diabetes is due to endothelial dysfunction. The present study investigated the effects of hydroalcholic extract of Nigella sativa (N. sativa) on contractile and dilatation response of isolated aorta in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat. Materials and Methods: Rats ...
متن کاملCitrate treatment reduces endothelial death and inflammation under hyperglycaemic conditions
Hyperglycaemia and glucose degradation products (GDPs) are closely associated with oxidative stress and inflammation in diabetic patients, a condition that leads to endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular problems. We evaluated the effect of citrate and gluconate on glucose- and GDP-induced endothelial inflammation by measuring changes in viability, inflammation and function in primary human...

Diabetic cardiomyopathy entails the cardiac injury induced by diabetes independently of any vascular disease or hypertension. Some transcription factors have been proposed to control the gene program involved in the setting and development of related processes. Nuclear factor-kappa B is a pleiotropic transcription factor associated to the regulation of many heart diseases. However, the nuclear ...
متن کاملDysautonomia: A Novel Approach to Understanding of Vasculitis and Type II Diabetes
Understanding of the atherosclerosis process has evolved from simple plaque build-up causing blockage to inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. The underlying etiology for endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation is autonomic imbalance. Autonomic imbalance also causes hormonal dysregulation and cellular receptor sensitivity. Therefore, dysautonomia is the underlying etiology behind ...
