Abstract
⺠Renal proximal tubule cell (PTC) lysosomes of Hp 2-2 DM mice have iron deposits. ⺠Renal PTC lysosomal membranes of Hp 2-2 DM mice are oxidized. ⺠PTC lysosomal membrane integrity of Hp 2-2 DM mice is compromised. ⺠Vitamin E stabilizes PTC lysosomal membrane integrity in Hp 2-2 DM mice. ⺠Iron-induced injury may explain increased nephropathy in Hp 2-2 DM humans.
