Exendin-4 induced phosphorylation of AMPK and endothelial nitric oxide synthase in HUVECs and arteries. Exendin-4 increased the expression of endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase (ERO1α), an important ER chaperone in endothelial cells, and this effect was mediated by AMPK activation. Experiments using siRNA-mediated knockdown or adenoviral overexpression revealed that ERO1α mediated the inhibitory effects of exendin-4 on ER stress and superoxide anion production, thus ameliorating HHcy-induced endothelial dysfunction. The present results demonstrate that ex
