metformin and Carotid Stenosis

metformin has been researched along with Carotid Stenosis in 8 studies

Metformin: A biguanide hypoglycemic agent used in the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus not responding to dietary modification. Metformin improves glycemic control by improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing intestinal absorption of glucose. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p289)
metformin : A member of the class of guanidines that is biguanide the carrying two methyl substituents at position 1.

Carotid Stenosis: Narrowing or stricture of any part of the CAROTID ARTERIES, most often due to atherosclerotic plaque formation. Ulcerations may form in atherosclerotic plaques and induce THROMBUS formation. Platelet or cholesterol emboli may arise from stenotic carotid lesions and induce a TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK; CEREBROVASCULAR ACCIDENT; or temporary blindness (AMAUROSIS FUGAX). (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp 822-3)

"Metformin increased insulin sensitivity, but did not affect neointimal thickness in either the normal fat or high fat diet-fed rats."7.85High-dose metformin (420mg/kg daily p.o.) increases insulin sensitivity but does not affect neointimal thickness in the rat carotid balloon injury model of restenosis. ( Breen, DM; Dalvi, P; Dolinsky, VW; Giacca, A; Guo, J; Lam, L; Pereira, TJ; Swain, N; Yeung, LSN, 2017)
"Treatment with metformin significantly attenuates neointimal hyperplasia through inhibition of smooth muscle cell proliferation, migration, and inflammation as well as by improvement of the insulin signaling pathway."5.39The protective effect and underlying mechanism of metformin on neointima formation in fructose-induced insulin resistant rats. ( Adeli, K; Ji, J; Jiang, B; Liu, L; Lu, J; Meng, H; Meng, QH; Randell, E; Wang, D, 2013)

" Long-term use of metformin, an AMPK activator, was previously reported to be neuroprotective, as it promotes behavioral improvement and angiogenesis following an acute ischemic injury of the brain."1.91Activated AMPK Protects Against Chronic Cerebral Ischemia in Bilateral Carotid Artery Stenosis Mice. ( Cai, B; Xie, W; Zeng, Y; Zheng, Y, 2023)
"Metformin treatment was associated with decreased NGAL [60."1.46Neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL) is elevated in type 2 diabetics with carotid artery stenosis and reduced under metformin treatment.
