1 [Effects of cilazapril on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 in diabetic rat glomeruli]. Cilazapril intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of cilazapril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), on the protection against diabetic nephropathy and on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in diabetic rat glomeruli. Cilazapril intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of cilazapril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), on the protection against diabetic nephropathy and on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in diabetic rat glomeruli. Cilazapril intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Rattus norvegicus
4 Cilazapril could reduce KW/BW, CCr and 24 hours urine protein count and significantly suppress the overexpression of VEGF and ICAM-1 in cilazapril treatment group after 8 weeks, compared with the DM model group(P < 0.05). Cilazapril intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Rattus norvegicus
5 Cilazapril could reduce KW/BW, CCr and 24 hours urine protein count and significantly suppress the overexpression of VEGF and ICAM-1 in cilazapril treatment group after 8 weeks, compared with the DM model group(P < 0.05). Cilazapril intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Rattus norvegicus
6 CONCLUSION: Cilazapril can suppress the overproduction of two cytokines, VEGF and ICAM-1, thus preventing the progression of diabetic nephropathy. Cilazapril intercellular adhesion molecule 1 Rattus norvegicus
