Abstract
Background: Hyperglycemia in patients with acute coronary syndromes is associated with poor outcomes,

and its rapid correction with insulin infusion has been shown to restore platelet responsiveness to nitric oxide (NO) and to suppress superoxide (O2-) generation. Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) has recently emerged as a pivotal modulator of hyperglycemia-induced inflammation, O2- production and impairment of NO signaling, but it

Method:

In twelve hyperglycemic acute coronary syndrome patients, we evaluated the putative role of TXNIP suppression in the platelet NO response after reversal of hyperglycemia with insulin infusion.
Results:
Insulin infusion for 13 ± 0.8 (SEM) hours decreased blood sugar level from 16.6 ± 1.6 to 8.7
