... for this remains elusive. Hypothesizing a positive non-additive effect, we studied whether the angiotensin receptor antagonist telmisartan or the ACEi ramipril acutely influence insulin secretion and glycaemia in vivo in healthy and Type 2 diabetic rats through effects on islet blood perfusion. Telmisartan...

... by changes in islet microcirculation, we evaluated the influence of GLP-1, exendin-4 and C-peptide on pancreatic IBF (islet blood flow), and dynamic changes in insulin secretion and glycaemia in the rat. Adult male Wistar rats were divided into four groups given intravenous saline, GLP-1, exendin-4 or C...

... <0.001), but not in creatinine levels. No correlation was found between insulin sensitivity and ADMA. We conclude that acute changes in glycaemia do not significantly affect plasma ADMA levels whereas infusion of insulin significantly reduces ADMA, suggesting an important role for insulin...
