The protective effects of beta-casomorphin-7 against glucose -induced renal oxidative stress in vivo and vitro.

Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of β-casomorphin-7 (BCM7) on the oxidative stress occurring in kidney tissue in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats and proximal tubular epithelial cells (NRK-52E) exp...
