Objective-Ischemia caused by narrowing of femoral artery is a major cause of peripheral arterial disease and morbidity affecting patients with diabetes mellitus. We have previously reported that the inhibition of the angiogenic response to VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) in diabetic mice was associated with the increased expression of SHP-1 (SH2 domain-containing phosphatase 1), a protein that can be activated by the AT2 (angiotensin II type 2) receptor. Deletion of AT2 receptor has been shown to promote angiogenesis within the ischemic muscle. However, the relative impact of AT2 receptor in diabetic condition remains unknown.Approach and Results-Nondiabetic and diabetic AT2 null (Atgr2(-/Y)) mice underwent femoral artery ligation after 2 months of diabetes mellitus. Blood perfusion was measured every week
