Abstract:
In this study, the effect of hespridin, a natural flavonoid, on renal function and morphology in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats was evaluated. The result was compared with that of aminoguanidine which can inhibit the formation of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) and can decreased diabetic complications in experimental diabetes. The results showed that excretion of urinary protein, and the content of AGEs and LPO decreased, while the mesangial expansion and basement membrane thickening were retarded in diabetic rats treated with hespridin. These indicate that hespridin plays the same protective role as aminoguanidine in inhibiting formation of AGEs, thus preventing the development of nephropathy in STZ induced diabetic rats.
