Rosiglitazone Restores Endothelial Dysfunction in a Rat Model of Metabolic Syndrome through PPARγ- and PPARδ-Dependent Phosphorylation of Akt and eNOS

Rosiglitazone Restores Endothelial Dysfunction in a Rat Model of Metabolic Syndrome through PPARγ- and PPARδ-Dependent Phosphorylation of Akt and eNOS

Vascular endothelial dysfunction has been demonstrated in metabolic syndrome (MS). Chronic administration of rosiglitazone ameliorates endothelial dysfunction through PPARγ-mediated metabolic improvements. Recently, studies suggested that single dose of rosiglitazone also has direct vascular effects...
