Abstract

Oxidative stress is implicated to play an important role in the development of diabetic vascular complications, including diabetic nephropathy. It is unclear whether oxidative stress is primarily enhanced in the diabetic glomeruli or whether it is merely a consequence of diabetes-induced glomerular injury. To address this issue, we examined diabetic glomeruli to determine whether oxidative stress is enhanced, as well as examined the role of protein kinase C (PKC)-β activation in modulating NADPH oxidase activity. Urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine excretion and its intense immune-reactive staining in the glomeruli were markedly higher in diabetic than in control rats, and these alterations were ameliorated by a treatment with a selective PKC-β inhibitor, ruboxistaurin (RBX; LY333531) mesylate, without affecting glycemia. NADPH oxidase activity, which was significantly enhanced in diabetic glomeruli and the source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, was also improved by RBX treatment by preventing the membranous translocation of p47phox and p67phox from cytoplasmic fraction without affecting their protein levels. Adenoviral-mediated PKC-β2 overexpression enhanced ROS generation by modulating the membranous translocation of p47phox and p67phox in cultured mesangial cells. We now demonstrate that oxidative stress is primarily enhanced in the diabetic glomeruli due to a PKC-β-dependent activation of NADPH oxidase resulting in ROS generation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
