Developmental changes in long-opening behavior of L-type Ca2+ channels in embryonic chick heart cells.

abstract：:Increased levels of C-peptide, a cleavage product of proinsulin, circulate in patients with insulin resistance and early type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recent data suggest a potential causal role of C-peptide in atherogenesis by promoting monocyte and T-lymphocyte recruitment into the vessel wall. The present study examine...
