Fenofibrate improves vascular endothelial function in diabetic mice

Microvascular and macrovascular complications are major causes of disability and death in diabetic patients. High levels of blood glucose sabotage the integrity of blood vessels and induce endothelial dysfunction. Fenofibrate is an agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α and can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events in diabetic patients. This study tested the hypothesis that fenofibrate could ameliorate...
