C1q/Tumor Necrosis Factor-Related Protein-3 Improves Microvascular Endothelial Function in Diabetes through the AMPK/eNOS/NO· Signaling Pathway

Investigators demonstrated that the C1q-like globular domain of C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein (CTRP)3, CTRP5, and CTRP9 exerted a vasorelaxant effect on the microvasculature, of which gCTRP3 was the most powerful one.
