Expression of prostacyclin-stimulating factor (PSF) in mononuclear cells of human peripheral blood a
with type 2 diabetes and/or myocardial infarction. In the present study, we investigated the existence of PSF in human serum, and effects of glucose on serum PSF levels in patients with type 2 diabetes [...] available 2008-06-17T13:56:50Z dc.date.issued 2005-12-20 de dc.description.abstract Prostacyclin (PGI2) synthesis by vascular endothelial cells (ECs) decreases in diabetic subjects, possibly leading to [...] sis. We identified a bioactive peptide, prostacyclin-stimulating factor (PSF), which stimulates PGI2 synthesis in cultured aortic ECs. Our previous studies demonstrated that PSF was predominantly expressed …
