Electrolytic ammonia removal and current efficiency by a vermiculite-packed electrochemical reactor.

abstract：:Resistin, an adipokine involved in insulin resistance (IR) and diabetes, has recently been reported to play a role in cardiovascular events. However, its effect on blood pressure (BP) and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, we showed that resistin induces hypertension and IR in wild type (W...
