Vascular endothelial damage is the first manifestation of atherosclerosis [11] and elevated concentration of adhesion molecules such as Vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1) may be useful indicators of the development of atherosclerotic plaques at an early phase in diabetes [11]. This evidence concerns the gene ICAM1 and atherosclerosis.
