ET-blockade and Exercise-induced Vascular Adaptations in T2DM
ET-blockade and Exercise-induced Vascular Adaptations in T2DM
The purpose of this study is to establish the effect of ET blockade on vascular adaptations
 during an 8-week exercise program in subjects with T2DM. We hypothesize that combining ET -
 blockade with exercise training leads to an acute increase of exercise induced blood flow
 when compared with exercise alone. We expect that this will lead to an optimization of
 vascular training effect in T2DM.
