Feasibility of fluorescence energy transfer system for imaging the renoprotective effects of aliskiren in diabetic mice
Introduction: We investigated the feasibility of using a fluorescence resonance energy transfer system to image enzymatic activity in order to evaluate the effects of aliskiren (a direct renin inhibitor) on diabetic nephropathy. Materials and methods: First, we induced diabetes in C57BL/6J mice usin...
