Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Erythropoietin (EPO) improved endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation response of the aortic ring in STZ-induced type 1 diabetes model rat, and EPO has been shown to inhibit inflammation, such as infiltration of the macrophage, the increased expression of MCP-1, an adhesion molecule. EPO also suppressed increase of oxidative stress index such as the amount of MDA and NADPH oxidase m-RNA expression in the vascular tissue. Furthermore, EPO inhibited the expression of the advanced glycation end product (AGE) receptor without affecting blood pressure, blood glucose level, and HbAlC in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Taken together these results, the mechanisms of vascular protection have been suggested anti-inflammatory action, may be through the antioxidant.
