Folic acid supplementation provides beneficial effects on endothelial functions in patients with hyperhomocysteinemia. However, its effects on vascular functions under diabetic conditions are largely unknown. Therefore, the effect(s) of folic acid (5.7 and 71 microg/kg/day for 4 weeks) on aortic
Angiopoietin-related growth factor (AGF; or Angptl6) is a liver-derived, circulating factor and is considered to be a regulator of metabolic homeostasis. AGF is capable of counteracting both obesity and obesity-related insulin resistance. However, the target tissues and the molecular mechanisms
Obesity is associated with increased leptin production that may contribute to cardiovascular pathology through a multiplicity of effects. Leptin has been shown to contribute to vascular remodeling through various mechanisms, including production of vascular smooth muscle (VSMC) hypertrophy; however,
