Journal ArticleDOI

A Breaker of Advanced Glycation End Products Attenuates Diabetes-Induced Myocardial Structural Changes

TL;DR: It is suggested that AGEs play a central role in many of the alterations observed in the diabetic heart and that cleavage of preformed AGE crosslinks with ALT‐711 leads to attenuation of diabetes‐associated cardiac abnormalities in rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved islet morphology after blockade of the renin-angiotensin system in the ZDF rat

TL;DR: Improvements in structural parameters were also associated with functional improvements in first-phase insulin secretion and provide a possible mechanism for the reduced incidence of new-onset diabetes that has been observed in clinical trials of RAS blockade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of Accelerated Atherosclerosis by Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibition in Diabetic Apolipoprotein E–Deficient Mice

TL;DR: The activation of the local renin-angiotensin system in the diabetic aorta and the reduction in atherosclerosis with ACE inhibitor treatment provides further evidence that the ren in-angiotsin system plays a pivotal role in the development and acceleration of atherosclerotic lesions in diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Irbesartan but Not Amlodipine Suppresses Diabetes-Associated Atherosclerosis

TL;DR: Diabetes-associated Atherosclerosis is ameliorated by AT1 receptor blockade but not by calcium channel antagonism, providing further evidence for the vascular renin-angiotensin system playing a pivotal role in the development and acceleration of atherosclerosis in diabetes.
