Abstract:
... Diabetic cardiomyopathy is identified as cardiac ventricular dysfunction induced by an insulin shortage in diabetic patients. Our previous studies have shown that Polydatin (PD) alleviates cardiac dysfunction after myocardial infarction (MI) injury. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which PD regulates diabetic cardiomyopathy has not been reported.In this study, we demonstrated the effects and describ ...
