DDAH says NO to ADMA.
Endothelium-derived nitric oxide (NO) is vasoprotective, as it enhances endothelial cell survival and proliferation, inhibits the excessive proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and suppresses the adhesion of platelets and inflammatory cells to the vessel wall.1 Substantial evidence from preclinical studies and human research indicates that impairment of the endothelial NO synthase (NO...
متن کاملADMA, SDMA and L-arginine/ADMA ratio but not DDAH genetic polymorphisms are reliable predictors of diabetic nephropathy progression as identified by competing risk analysis.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Complex interplay of genetic and (patho)physiological factors influence availability of nitric oxide during the development and progression of diabetic complications. We assessed predictive value of commonly studied methylated asymmetric and symmetric dimethylarginines (ADMA and SDMA) and selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase ...
متن کاملRosmarinic Acid Ameliorates Diabetic Nephropathy in Uninephrectomized Diabetic Rats
Objective(s) Oxidative stress plays an important role in diabetic nephropathy pathogenesis. Rosmarinic acid, a plant phenolic compound, was first used as an antioxidant agent for inhibition of diabetic nephropathy. Material and Methods Forty male rats were uninephrectomized from the left flank.The rats were divided in four groups randomly; group one as control, group two diabetic untreatment...
متن کاملEffective Delivery of Endogenous Antioxidants Ameliorates Diabetic Nephropathy
BACKGROUND Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is thought to be partially due to the injury of renal cells and the renal micro-environment by free radicals. Free radial scavenging agents that inhibit free radical damage may well prevent the development of underlying conditions such as mesangial expansion (by inhibiting extracellular matrix expression) in these patients. METHODS Using techniques for int...
متن کاملHistological changes of kidney in diabetic nephropathy
Diabetes mellitus is the most common cause of chronic renal disorders and end-stage kidney disease in developed countries. It is the major cause of dialysis and transplantation. Failure in renal function causes wide disorders in the body. Diabetes results in wide range of alterations in the renal tissue. It is believed that early histological changes in diabetic nephropathy are detectabl...
