Abstract:
Insulin has both growth-promoting and vasculoprotective effects in vitro, however the predominant effect in vivo is unclear. After arterial injury in rats insulin decreased neointimal growth and cell migration, and increased SMC differentiation markers, reendothelialization, and the number of circulating progenitor cells. Thus, insulin has a predominant vasculoprotective effect in vivo.
