Effects of ACE Inhibition and Angiotensin II Receptor Blockade on Glomerular Basement Membrane Protein Excretion and Charge Selectivity in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Effects of ACE Inhibition and Angiotensin II Receptor Blockade on Glomerular Basement Membrane Protein Excretion and Charge Selectivity in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors may reduce urinary albumin excretion (UAE) by decreasing glomerular pressure and increasing glomerular charge selectivity through preservation of glycosaminoglycans. The effect of Angiotensin II antagonism on glomerular charge selectivity remains to be...
