Abstract
Low plasma levels of S1P seemed to be associated with diabetic nephropathy. The main reason for the decreased S1P levels in our patients seems to be severe urinary albumin loss due to nephropathy. Low levels of S1P in patients with nephropathy may adversely affect the endothelial integrity and barrier function, thus causing a vicious circle.
