Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oxidative stress and inflammation are two key drivers of diabetic vascular disease. Novel treatment strategies that address these underlying drivers are urgently needed to lessen the burden of debilitating micro- and microvascular complications that accompany Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. This Special Issue will investigate novel and emerging strategies to lessen diabetic vasculopathies. Indeed, lowered oxidative stress and reduced inflammation have been linked to the most promising and newest hyperglycemia-lowering drugs, i.e., SGLT2 inhibitors, DPP4 inhibitors, and GLP-1 receptor agonists. Elucidating how these and other novel therapies improve diabetic micro- and microvascular complications will not only highlight the importance of targeting these key pathways but also strengthen their use as novel therapeutics with added vascular benefits, often independent of their glucose-lowering abilities.
