Leptin and leptin receptor evaluation in atherosclerotic plaques in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Background. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a significant predictor of atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, and cardiovascular mortality. It is known that atherosclerosis occurs earlier in patients with diabetes, reducing the duration of their life. Leptin as well as other inflammatory markers can con...
