dc.description.abstractThis study examines the histopathological response to injury following both balloon angioplasty and endovascular stenting in the Zucker rat, a model that allows interpretation of the role of obesity as well as progressive glucose intolerance and hyperinsulimaemia. Lean and obese Zucker fatty rats and Zucker diabetic fatty rat (ZDF) were subjected to balloon injury with or without stenting. The development of IH, along with the histological response to injury was analyzed.en_ZA
