ABSTRACT
AIM:
To investigate the effects and mechanisms of irbesartan,one of the angiotensin Ⅱreceptor blockers,on kidney function in diabetic rats.METHODS:
Forty adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups control group,diabetes group,irbesartan group and captopril group. At the end of 12 weeks,the rats were sacrificed. Urine volume,body weight,kidney weight/body weight,plasma,glucose,glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA_1c),urinary ?_2-microglobulin (?_2-MG) excretion,urinary albumin excretion rate (UAR),creatinine clearance (Ccr) were measured. Nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) levels in plasma,urinary and renal tissues were determined.RESULTS:
Urine volume,kidney weight/body weight,plasma glucose,HbA1C,UAR,Ccr,urinary ?_2-MG excretion,NO and ET-1 levels of urinary,blood and renal tissue in diabetic rats were significantly higher than those of normal controls ( P
