Is meal-induced platelet activation in diabetes mellitus type 1 or type 2 related to postprandial insulin rather than glucose levels?
Postprandial platelet activation via the thromboxane pathway is related to postprandial hyperinsulinemia and not to postprandial hyperglycaemia in patients with diabetes.
Lack of continuity or incomplete formation of this sub-endothelial lamina, which was seen particularly in the coronary artery, was associated with localized entry into the arterial wall of gamma globulin, lipid and cells from the circulating blood and with the development of atheromatous lesions.
