Overview

Review demonstrates mechanisms linking oxidative stress to endothelial dysfunction in diabetes mellitus, highlighting targeted glucose-lowering drugs for vascular protection.

Key Points

To review the pathophysiological links between diabetes mellitus, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction, and assess therapeutic strategies to preserve vascular function.
Synthesized molecular mechanisms involving chronic hyperglycemia, postprandial glucose fluctuations, and endothelial insulin signaling pathways.
Evaluated the vascular effects of multiple glucose-lowering drug classes and antioxidant therapies on endothelial function.
Chronic hyperglycemia and postprandial glucose swings amplify oxidative stress, while selective endothelial insulin resistance impairs the PI3K/Akt/eNOS cascade to reduce nitric oxide and increase endothelin-1 production.
Antidiabetic agents mitigating glucose variability or enhancing insulin sensitivity, including DPP-4 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, metformin, and SGLT2 inhibitors, improve endothelial function via glucose-dependent and independent pathways.
Oral antioxidant supplementation demonstrates no verified clinical efficacy against diabetic vascular complications and is not recommended.
