  • Restoration of normoglycemia and removal of uremia with KP transplant can correct these abnormalities.

    PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles Franco Folli et al. 2010

  • These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that hyperglycemia and uremia, through different mechanisms, determine persistent cellular changes of the oxidative status and pathways and that restoration of normoglycemia with KP transplantation can correct most of these biochemical abnormalities.
