Dipeptidyl Peptidase‐4 Inhibitors Attenuate Endothelial Function as Evaluated by Flow‐Mediated Vasodilatation in Type 2 Diabetic Patients
BACKGROUND: Endothelial dysfunction is an independent predictor for cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Glucagon like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) reportedly exerts vasodilatory actions, and inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 (DPP‐4), an enzyme‐degrading GLP‐1, are widely used to t...
