Interaction between expression of angiogenic factors and pathology of the microvasculature and cardiomyocytes in myocardial tissue of patients with diabetes mellitus

Abstract

Sudden death with myocardial infarction has always
been a challenging issue for the investigators and
forensic pathologists. When a person suffering from
angina or myocardial infarction is simultaneously
suffering from diabetes mellitus issue becomes even
more complex for the investigators as usual signs and
symptoms of MI may not manifest so as to rouse a
suspicion of MI. This study will help the pathologists to
understand the microscopic changes of diabetic
cardiomyopathy better in a case having MI with
diabetes. This study was done in 47 cases to know the
pathology of microvasculature and cardiomyocytes in
myocardial tissue of diabetic patients and expression of
angiogenic factors.
