Telmisartan inhibits expression of a receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) in angiotensin-II-exposed endothelial cells and decreases serum levels of soluble RAGE in patients with essential hypertension

There is a growing body of evidence that the advanced glycation end product (AGE)–their receptor (RAGE) system plays a central role in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular complication. The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) contributes to the development and progression of diabetic angiopathy as well....
