Tempol reduces oxidative stress, improves insulin sensitivity.
Diabetes. 2005 Jul;54(7):2219-26. Banday AA¹, Marwaha A, Tallam LS, Lokhandwala MF. ¹Heart and Kidney Institute, University of Houston, Houston, Texas Abstract Oxidative stress plays a pathogenic role in hypertension, particularly the one associated with diabetes and obesity. Here, we test the hypothesis that renal dopamine D1 receptor dysfunction in obese Zucker rats is caused by […]
