Journal ArticleDOI
Aldose reductase and the role of the polyol pathway in diabetic nephropathy
TL;DR: Aldose reductase may both exacerbate and alleviate the production of metabolites that lead to hyperglycemia-induced cellular impairment, with the balance determining the extent of dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI
The link between hyperglycaemia and diabetic nephropathy.
TL;DR: This review focuses on four potential bio-chemical pathways linking hyperglycaemia to changes within the kidney which can plausibly be linked to the functional and structural changes characterising diabetic nephropathy.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relative roles of advanced glycation, oxidation and aldose reductase inhibition in the development of experimental diabetic nephropathy in the Sprague-Dawley rat
TL;DR: The failure of either antioxidants or aldose reductase inhibition to reproduce the renal effects of aminoguanidine suggest that aminogsuanidine may act predominantly via inhibition of advanced glycation and not via the alternative biochemical processes evaluated in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pancreatic islets synthesize phospholipids de novo from glucose via acyl-dihydroxyacetone phosphate
TL;DR: It is suggested that de novo synthesis of phosphatidic acid provides a link between glucose metabolism and the release of insulin and the presence in the islet of acyl-dihydroxyacetone phosphate: NADP oxidoreductase and acyl CoA:1 acylglycerol-3-phosphate acyl transferase, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of inhibition of aldose reductase on glucose flux, diacylglycerol formation, protein kinase C, and phospholipase A2 activation.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided to suggest a mechanism linking increased polyol pathway activity and an increase in PLA2 activity to increased prostaglandin production, which is observed in diabetes of recent onset and may ultimately lead to changes associated with the development of diabetic nephropathy.
