Wild blueberry consumption attenuates local inflammation in the perivascular adipose tissue of obese Zucker rats

Abstract

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) has been shown to play important roles in regulating vascular tone and linking local and systemic vascular inflammation.Weexamined the impact of PVAT on phenylephrine-mediated vasoconstriction in the aorta of obese Zucke
