Abstract
SOD1 allelic variations were associated with the prevalence of diabetic nephropathy, with the incidence of microalbuminuria and with decreased eGFR in type 1 diabetic subjects. These results are consistent with an implication of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of diabetic nephropathy and with the major role for antioxidant enzymes as a mechanism of renal protection.
