High Glucose Impairs Early and Late Endothelial Progenitor Cells by Modifying Nitric Oxide–Related but Not Oxidative Stress–Mediated Mechanisms

TL;DR: High glucose impaired the proliferation and function of early and late EPCs, suggesting the role of NO-related rather than oxidative stress–mediated mechanisms in hyperglycemia-caused EPC downregulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microsatellite polymorphism in promoter of heme oxygenase-1 gene is associated with susceptibility to coronary artery disease in type 2 diabetic patients

TL;DR: Results imply that the length polymorphism in the HO-1 gene promoter modulate the transcription of the gene in vascular cells, suggesting type 2 diabetics carrying longer (GT)n repeats might have higher oxidative stress and increased susceptibility to the development of CAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of Cardiomyocyte Apoptotic Signaling by Insulin-like Growth Factor I

TL;DR: The effects of IGF I on Bcl-2, Bax, caspase 3, DNA fragmentation, and cell survival in primary cardiomyocytes is defined and may help elucidate how IGF I modulates apoptotic signaling in cardiac muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Independent prognostic value of elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in chronic heart failure

TL;DR: Findings suggest that an elevated level of hsCRP is an independent predictor of prognosis in CHF and can provide additional prognostic information for the risk stratification and treatment in patients with chronic CHF.
