The Role of Marein During Endothelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Diabetic Kidney Disease

Int. j. morphol; 42 (4), 2024
SUMMARY: Marein is a flavonoid compound that reduces blood glucose and lipids and has a protective effect in diabetes. However, the effect and mechanism(s) of marein on renal endothelial-mesenchymal transition in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) have not been elucidated. In this study, single-cell sequencin...

Improvement of Na+-K+ ATPase Activity and Gene Expression Associated with Glomerular Ultrastructural Protection in Diabetic Nephropathy by Acacia senegal: Role of Oxidative Stress Disturbances

Int. j. morphol; 42 (1), 2024
SUMMARY: This study assessed the effects of Acacia Senegal (AS) combined with insulin on Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) activity and mRNA expression, serum glucose, renal function, and oxidative stress in a rat model of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Sixty rats were equally divided into six groups: normal control, norm...

Prevalence and associated factors of diabetic retinopathy in Latin American countries: a scoping review

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 83 (), 2024
ABSTRACT Objective To gather the available evidence in the literature on the prevalence and associated factors of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in Latin America. Methods This scoping review was developed according to the PRISMA-ScR. Prevalence data were summarized by weighted mean, considering the type o...

Amorphophallus campanulatus tuber extract protects diabetic nephropathy in streptozotocin-induced diabetic nephropathy rat model by regulating oxidative stress and TNF-α inflammatory pathway

Acta cir. bras; 39 (), 2024
Purpose: To assess the effect of Amorphophallus campanulatus tuber (Ac) extract in the protection of diabetic nephropathy in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic nephropathy (DN) rat model. Methods: Diabetes was induced with STZ (60 mg/kg, i.p.), and DN was confirmed after six weeks of STZ administrati...

Experimental model of nephropathy associated with diabetes mellitus in mice

Acta cir. bras; 38 (), 2023
Purpose: Nontransmissible chronic diseases, such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and nephropathy, affect a significant portion of the population, often treated due to injuries that require healing and regeneration. To create an experimental model of associated comorbidities, for healing and regeneration studie...

Rastreamento da doença renal do diabetes na atenção primária à saúde

A Doença Renal do Diabetes (DRD) é assintomática nos estágios iniciais da doença, e por esse motivo, a maioria dos pacientes é diagnosticada somente quando já apresenta várias complicações. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar se o rastreio da DRD está sendo realizado de maneira adequada em pac...

Role of Brain Angiotensin-II in Development of Experimental Diabetic Nephropathy in Wistar Rats

Abstract The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays a key role in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Angiotensin-II secreted during the RAAS pathway increases nephropathy. It stimulates oxidative stress which can quench nitric oxide. Reduced nitric oxide level aggravates Ang-II-induced vasoconstrictio...

Alpha-kinase1 promotes tubular injury and interstitial inflammation in diabetic nephropathy by canonical pyroptosis pathway

Biol. Res; 56 (), 2023
BACKGROUND: Alpha-kinase 1 (ALPK1) is a master regulator in inflammation and has been proved to promote renal fibrosis by promoting the production of IL-1β in diabetic nephropathy (DN) mice. Pyroptosis is involved in high glucose (HG)-induced tubular cells injury, characterized by activation of Gasdermi...

Renal protective effect of ellipticine against streptozotocin induced diabetic nephropathy in rats via suppression of oxidative stress and inflammatory mediator

Acta cir. bras; 38 (), 2023
Purpose: Diabetes mellitus is a serious health problem worldwide, and diabetic nephropathy is the complication. The diabetic nephropathy considerably enhances the oxidative stress, glycation, lipid parameters and inflammatory reaction. Ellipticine has potent free radical scavenging and anti-inflammatory ...

Recomendaciones para evaluar la tasa de filtrado glomerular menor de 60 ml/min/1, 73 m2 en pacientes con enfermedad renal y diabetes mellitus

Rev. Soc. Argent. Diabetes; 56 (suple. 2), 2022
Diagnosticar, clasificar y estadificar la enfermedad renal en pacientes con diabetes mellitus (DM) es un desafío tanto para los médicos de atención primaria como para los especialistas, porque no existe método en la práctica clínica que evalúe la tasa de filtrado glomerular (TFG) en forma precisa....
