## Abstract Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), as an important proinflammatory agent, targets the endothelium. However, almost all in vitro experiments of the effect of LPS on vascular endothelial cells (VECs) were performed under an artificially decreased concentration of serum that was not enough to maint
## Abstract Hyperglycemia and elevation of methylglyoxal (MG) are symptoms of diabetes mellitus (DM). We previously showed that high glucose (HG; 30 mM) or MG (50โ400 ยตM) could induce apoptosis in mammalian cells, but these doses are higher than the physiological concentrations of glucose and MG in
## Abstract Ouabain is Na^+^/K^+\_^ATPase inhibitor and an endogenous regulator of blood pressure, it has dual effect on vascular endothelial cells(VEC) cell growth and VEC apoptosis is contributed to vascular dysfunction involved in vascular remolding. However, the precise mechanisms of apoptosis
