Pioglitazone Attenuates Vascular Fibrosis in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
Objective. We sought to investigate whether the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) ligand pioglitazone can attenuate vascular fibrosis in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and explore the possible molecular mechanisms. Methods. SHRs (8-week-old males) were randomly divided in...
