Summary

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing worldwide, and its complications are one of the leading causes of mortality from non-communicable diseases. Due to the high prevalence of diabetes and because 30-40% of diabetic patients \[both type 1 (T1DM) and type 2 (T2DM) diabetes mellitus\] develop kidney dysfunction, diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the main cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), endothelin, and urotensin II are vasoactive hormones that have been extensively studied as other mediators although their relation to diabetic nephropathy is still speculative.
