Abstract

The combined treatment of blood flow restriction and low intensity electrical stimulation attenuated type 2 diabetes (T2D)-associated capillary regression in the skeletal muscles. The treatment inhibits the T2D-associated increase in antiangiogenic factors via inhibition of intramuscular chronic hypoxia; it can inhibit intramuscular chronic hypoxia by enhancing proangiogenic factors. These results suggest that the combined treatment may be an effective therapeutic intervention for the prevention of T2D-associated capillary regression in the skeletal muscles.
