Journal ArticleDOI

The clinical implications of endothelial dysfunction.

TL;DR: This work suggests that studies of endothelial function could be used in the care of patients and as a surrogate marker for the evaluation of new therapeutic strategies, and a growing number of interventions known to reduce cardiovascular risk have been shown to improve endothelialfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical Inactivity Rapidly Induces Insulin Resistance and Microvascular Dysfunction in Healthy Volunteers

TL;DR: Physical inactivity was associated with the development of insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, increased blood pressure, and impaired microvascular function in healthy volunteers and may provide insight into the pathogenesis of vascular disease in sedentary individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Altered Mitochondrial Dynamics Contributes to Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetes Mellitus

TL;DR: Findings implicate increased mitochondrial fission as a contributing mechanism for endothelial dysfunction in diabetic states through increased reactive oxygen species production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipoic acid as a potential therapy for chronic diseases associated with oxidative stress.

TL;DR: The known biochemical properties of alpha-Lipoic acid are reviewed with particular reference to how LA may be an effective agent to ameliorate certain pathophysiologies of many chronic diseases.
