Funded Activity Summary

Kidney failure is a devastating consequence of diabetes mellitus. Evidence exists that increased amounts of glucose are filtered by the kidney and then together with salt is reaborbed, in patients with diabetes. The increased glucose and salt reabsorption is considered to trigger cellular damage leading to renal failure. The studies will determine if reducing glucose and salt resportion by the kidney protects against the development of renal failure in models of diabetic renal disease.
