Abstract

Reactive oxygen species are implicated in the generation of inflammation, decrease of vascular and tissue nitric oxide (NO) concentrations and damage to the cardiovascular system following diabetes. The aim of this study was to examine the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and cardio-protective effects of resveratrol (Res) (2 mg/kg/day) in aged Wistar rats (6 months) following 8 weeks of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes. Rats were divided into control (C), control+Res (C+R), STZ and STZ+Res (STZ+R) treatment groups.
