چکیده

Glycation of proteins is regarded as one of the major causes of the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy. Based on the numerous reports on experimental models and on our own newly developed techniques, we planned to localize Amadori products and advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), as well as the mRNA expression of cytokines, enzymes and their inhibitors, which are responsible for the expansion of the mesangial areas of the glomeruli. Ten patients with diabetic nephropathy were examined. Patients with immunoglobulin (Ig) A nephropathy and normal portions of the surgically removed kidneys served as controls. Amadori products and AGEs in biopsy specimens were stained by specific monoclonal antibodies, and mRNA expression of the above substances was detected by in situ hybridization. There was a parallel progression in the degree of staining with anti-Amadori product antibody or anti-AGE antibody with the severity of tissue damage in patients with diabetic nephropathy. Patients with IgA nephropathy and normal renal tissues did not show any positive staining with these antibodies. The expression of transforming growth factor beta 1, stromelysin and tissue inhibitor of matrix proteinase 1 in the glomeruli was decreased in diabetic patients with advanced tissue damage, but they were progressively expressed in the advanced stage of IgA nephropathy. It is concluded that Amadori products and of AGEs were formed in parallel in diabetic kidneys. The decrease in the expression of the cytokine and enzymes might be due to altered protein formation associated with glycation.

Effect of Some Calcium Channel Blockers in Experimentally Induced Diabetic Nephropathy in Rats

Diabetic nephropathy (DNP) is considered a CRD (Chronic Renal Disease); it is a major cause of illness and premature death in people with DM. The present study was designed to illustrate the role of CCBs (amlodipine and diltiazem) in prevention and treatment of DNP in rats. Eighty male albino rats weighing (130-180gm) were used in this study. These animals were subdivided into five equal groups...

ÉÍββÉββββIntroduction & Objective: Diabetic nephropathy is one of the micro vascular complications of uncontrolled diabetes. Chronic hyperglycemia results in the formation of glycated proteins and activation of pathways leading to diabetic nephropathy. Increasing RAGE and TGF? production in the kidney tissue is a major pathway involved in diabetic complications. In this survey, the effect of ...
