3 Jul 2008
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate potential mechanisms of oxidative DNA damage in a rat model of type 1 diabetes and in murine proximal tubular epithelial cells and primary culture of rat proximal tubular epithelial cells. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Phosphorylation of Akt and tuberin, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) levels, and 8-oxoG-DNA glycosylase (OGG1) expression were measured in kidney cortical...
