They are widely distributed throughout the body, but the majority of their subclasses are found in blood vessels, more specifically in the vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and in the endothelial cells (ECs). In blood vessels, they participate in the regulation of proper vascular tone. Certain diseases may impair the structure and function of vascular K\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    channels and decrease their expression in the blood vessels, causing improper blood flow through vital organs and vascular tone dysfunction. These changes lead to clinically significant diseases (hypotension, hypertension, atherosclerosis, cerebrovascular diseases, etc.), which increase total and cardiovascular mortality. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a condition that significantly alters the structure and function of K\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    channels in the blood vessels. These changes contribute to the development of common DM-associated chronic macrovascular and microvascular complications, which further increases morbidity and mortality. These complications are especially prominent in diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM). Moreover, other concomitant pathophysiological processes impair K\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    channels, which accelerate the progression of DM.
