Atherosclerosis and Insulin Resistance: Is There a Link Between Them? by Alina Diduța Brie, Ruxandra Maria Christodorescu, Roxana Popescu, Ovidiu Adam, Alexandru Tîrziu, Daniel Miron Brie

“…Compelling evidence indicates that IR independently predicts the progression of atherosclerotic plaques, even in non-diabetic individuals, and operates through both traditional risk factors and direct vascular effects. Understanding and targeting the IR–ATS axis is essential for the effective prevention and management of cardiovascular disease.…”

Chronic metabolic stress impairs lymphatic contractility via activation of KATP channels in a mouse model of Type-2 diabetes by Jorge A. Castorena-Gonzalez, Hae Jin Kim, Michael J. Davis

“…The equivalent concentration of mannitol, an osmotic control, did not result in any significant changes in lymphatic contractile function. Lymphatic dysfunction induced by high glucose was rescued by GLIB (1 mM), and lymphatic vessels from Kir6.1−/− mice were largely resistant to the inhibitory effects of high glucose.DiscussionOur results suggest that a substantial fraction of lymphatic contractile impairment in db/db mice is mediated by the activation of KATP channels in lymphatic muscle cells, in part due to chronic metabolic stress associated with elevated glucose.…”
