[ 1 ] - Investigation on the vasodilatory effect of insulin through KATP channels and NO pathway in the skin vessels of native and diabetic rats

Introduction: Endothelium and smooth muscle dysfunction are the most important complications of diabetes. In type 1 diabetic patients, absence of insulin leads to vasoconstriction and lower skin blood perfusion. Release of some mediators by endothelium which is induced by insulin causes vasodilation, but the exact mechanism of insulin vasodilatory effect is not detected properly. At present st...
