Effects of Bariatric Surgery on Human Small Artery Function: Evidence for Reduction in Perivascular Adipocyte Inflammation, and the Restoration of Normal Anticontractile Activity Despite Persistent Obesity
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of bariatric surgery on small artery function and the mechanisms underlying this. BACKGROUND: In lean healthy humans, perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) exerts an anticontractile effect on adjacent small arteries, but this is lost in o...
