The role of endothelial nitric oxide in the anti-restenotic effects of liraglutide in a mouse model of restenosis

Abstract Background Previous animal studies have shown that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) suppress arterial restenosis, a major complication of angioplasty, presumably through their direct action on vascular smooth muscle cells. However, the contribution of vascular endothelia...
