| Research Abstract |
(Background) We investigated whether metformin modulates the revascularization processes in vivo employing a hindlimb model of ischemia-induced angiogenesis. (Methods)Wild-type (WT) mice or eNOS deficient (eNOS-KO) mice were randomly divided into two groups. Mice were treated with or without metformine and were subjected to unilateral hind limb ischemia.(Results)WT mice (metformin group) showed accelerated limb perfusion following hindlimb ischemic surgery based upon laser Doppler measurements of blood flow and increased capillary density in ischemic muscle compared to non-treated mice. Metformin group significantly enhanced ischemia-induced increase in AMPK and eNOS phosphorylation levels in WT mice. In eNOS-KO mice, metformin significantly increased the phosphorylation of AMPK in ischemic tissue, but did not affect blood flow recovery in ischemic limb. (Conclusions)Metformin could promote revascularization in response to tissue ischemia via an AMPK/eNOS-dependent mechanism.
