| Core Tip |
Diabetic nephropathy a leading cause of end-stage renal disease, is characterized by dysfunctional metabolic, haemodynamic and inflammatory pathways leading to glomerular hypertension. These pathways were normalized following treatment with phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors, which initiated renal vascular smooth muscle relaxation. This therapeutic option for treating diabetic nephropathy may negate the need for costly renal dialysis or transplantation. |
