BlockingαVβ3 Integrin Ligand Occupancy Inhibits the Progression of Albuminuria in Diabetic Rats

This study determined if blocking ligand occupancy of the αVβ3 integrin could inhibit the pathophysiologic changes that occur in the early stages of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Diabetic rats were treated with either vehicle or a monoclonal antibody that binds the β3 subunit of the αVβ3 integrin. Afte...
