Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of quantitation of TGF-?1 mRNA of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) in type 2 diabetic patients at different stages of nephropathy (DN). Methods TGF-?1 mRNA transcription in PBMC was analyzed quantitatively by RT-PCR and dot blot in 93 cases of type 2 diabetic patients and 35 normal controls. Correlation of TGF-?1 mRNA in PBMC with 24 hours urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) was also analysed. Results TGF-?1 mRNA level of PBMC in type 2 diabetic patients was significantly higher than that in normal controls (1.56?1.00 vs 1.03?0.25, P
