Associations of Angiopoietin 2 and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-A Concentrations with Clinical End Points

Angiopoietin 2 regulates endothelial function partially mediated by vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and may play a role in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). We assessed the association of angiopoietin 2 and VEGF-A with cardiorenal outcomes and investigated the effect of canagliflozin on angiopoietin 2 and VEGF-A concentrations.
