Adiponectin improves coronary no-reflow injury by protecting the endothelium in rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus. [PDF]
To determine the effect of adiponectin (APN) on the coronary no-reflow (NR) injury in rats with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), 80 male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed with a high-sugar-high-fat diet to build a T2DM model.
