Erythrocytes Induce Endothelial Injury in Type 2 Diabetes Through Alteration of Vascular Purinergic Signaling

It is well established that altered purinergic signaling contributes to vascular dysfunction in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Red blood cells (RBCs) serve as an important pool for circulating ATP and the release of ATP from RBCs in response to physiological stimuli is impaired in T2D. We recently demonstra...
