...of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) and its influence on serum levels of nephrin and B-cell activation factor belonging to the TNF family (BAFF). For this purpose, a prospective randomized controlled study method was designed for this study. 92 patients with IMN in our hospital from December 2015 to December 2017 were divided into study group (n=46) and control group (n=46) based on a computer-generated random number table. On the basis of conventional ...

...coside (TSG) in diabetic nephropathy (DN) rats and analyze its action on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-) 9 protein expression in kidney tissues, in order to reveal the mechanism of TSG. After 12 weeks of administration, compared with those in the DN modeling group, 24 h urine protein, serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), blood uric acid (UA), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransfera...

...lign: justify;">Diabetic nephropathy (DN), also known as diabetic kidney disease (DKD), is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients. A major cause of DKD is high blood pressure (hypertension) which remains uncontrolled chronically. Renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) is a major regulator of the blood pressure, electrolytes and fluid homeostasis. RAAS plays a key role in modulating the sodium metabolism, vasoconstriction, vascular...

... which leads to diabetic nephropathy. The goal of this investigation was to see if Trigonella foenum-graecum (TFG) flavonoid extract could protect the kidneys from the effects of (SZ). The goal of the current study was to determine if the ethanolic extract of (TFG) exhibited antioxidant activity against nephropathy resulting from the effects of diabetes due to (SZ). Animals in groups 2, 3, 4, and 5 were employed as experimen...
