Significance of Vascular Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibition on Vascular Protection in Zucker Diabetic Fatty Rats

Abstract.: To clarify the role of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibition in vascular tissues, we compared the effects of the poorly tissue-penetrative DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin to the highly tissue-penetrative DPP-4 inhibitor linagliptin in Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats. Six-week-old ZDF rat...
