Differential renal effects of candesartan at high-and ultra-high doses in diabetic mice: potential role of ACE2/AT2R/Mas [PDF]
High doses of Ang II receptor (AT1R) blockers (ARBs) are renoprotective in diabetes. Underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We evaluated whether high/ultra-high doses of candesartan (ARB) up-regulate angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/Ang II type 2 ...

The correlation between albuminuria and cystatin C in the assessment of the kidney function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Introduction: Cystatin C has shown a better correlation with albuminuria in relation to creatinine. It filters in glomeruli, reabsorbs in tubules, and does not go back into circulation, which makes it a reliable parameter for the assessment of kidney ...
