Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship of tubular epithelial-myofibroblast transdifferentiation and the expressions of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and Smad7, and to elucidate the role of HGF and Smad7 in diabetic nephropathy. METHODS: Diabetes was induced in male Wistar rats with right nephrectomy and streptozotocin (STZ) administration. The expressions of cytokeratin 18 (CK18), alpha-smooth muscle actin...
