摘要
In recent years endothelial function has been forwarded a modulator in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. This review summarizes how an imbalance between endothelium-derived reactive nitrogen species and reactive oxygen species as ell as increased expression of the endotheliumderived peptide endothelin-1 may contribute to loss of renal function in diabetes. In addition, the potentially beneficial effects of blockade of the renin-angiotensin system on this endothelial dysbalance is discussed.
