Article Synopsis
- Physical activity can lower the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, but the effects of exercise on diabetic blood vessels are not well-studied.
- Researchers conducted an experiment with different types of rats to see how moderate exercise affected their vascular health.
- Results showed that exercise increased mitochondrial proteins in healthy control rats but did not have the same effect on diabetic and hypertensive rats, indicating that chronic vascular issues might hinder the expected benefits of exercise on blood vessel adaptation.
