Abstract excerpt
The genetic predisposition to high glucose-induced peritoneal membrane (PM) injury during peritoneal dialysis (PD) and its mechanisms are of substantial clinical interest. We compared PD-induced peritoneal injury between two closely related mouse substrains, C57BL/6J and C57BL/6N, which differ in the function of the mitochondrial enzyme nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (NNT). Nnt(+/+) C57BL/6N mice...
