Inhibition of Vascular c‐Jun N‐Terminal Kinase 2 Improves Obesity‐Induced Endothelial Dysfunction After Roux‐en‐Y Gastric Bypass

BackgroundRoux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) reduces obesity‐associated comorbidities and cardiovascular mortality. RYGB improves endothelial dysfunction, reducing c‐Jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK) vascular phosphorylation. JNK activation links obesity with insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction. H...
