Contribution of Endogenous Glucocorticoids and Their Intravascular Metabolism by 11β-HSDs to Postangioplasty Neointimal Proliferation in Mice [PDF]
Exogenous glucocorticoids inhibit neointimal proliferation in animals. We aime to test the hypothesis that endogenous glucocorticoids influence neointimal proliferation; this may be mediated by effects on systemic risk factors or locally in vessels, and ...

The biology of PKM2 in the metabolism and senescence in diabetic kidney disease

Under long‐term hyperglycemia, cells shift their glucose metabolism from normal oxidative phosphorylation toward glycolysis.
