High Expression of Complement Components in the Kidneys of Type 2 Diabetic Rats With Diabetic Nephropathy
Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of end-stage failure of the kidneys; however, its pathogenesis remains unknown. This study assessed the expression of complement components in the kidneys of rats with type 2 DN to investigate their role in DN.Methods: A rat model of type 2...
