Although oscillating glucose can induce a more deleterious effect than high glucose on endothelial cells, the mechanism by which oscillating glucose exerts its dangerous effects is incompletely understood; however, the involvement of oxidative damage has been generally accepted. In this study we sought to determine whether oscillating glucose differentially modulates antioxidant response, and to elucidate the potential regulatory mechanisms exerted by the microRNA-185 (miR-185) %K Oscillating glucose %K miR-185 %K Antioxidant defense %K GPx-1 %K Oxidative stress %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4852407/
