Chymase inhibition retards albuminuria in type 2 diabetes
Abstract Chymase released from mast cells produces pro‐fibrotic, inflammatory, and vasoconstrictor agents. Studies were performed to test the hypothesis that chronic chymase inhibition provides a renal protective effect in type 2 diabetes. Diabetic (db/db) and control mice (db/m) were chronically in...
