Miglitol, an Anti-diabetic Drug, Inhibits Oxidative Stress–Induced Apoptosis and Mitochondrial ROS Over-Production in Endothelial Cells by Enhancement of AMP-Activated Protein Kinase
Endothelial dysfunction caused by oxidative stress plays a key role in atherogenesis. This study investigated whether the anti-diabetic drug miglitol, an α-glucosidase inhibitor, which is currently available in clinical practice, can prevent endothelial cell apoptosis and whether it might restore im...
