| Abstract | Hyperlipidemia is a risk factor for development and progression of diabetic nephropathy. However, it is not known if reduction of hyperlipidemia is protective against progression of disease. The goal of this study was to determine if reduction of hypercholesterolemia could limit progression of diabetic nephropathy. Diabetic and nondiabetic LDL receptor deficient (LDLR(-/-)) mice were fed diets containing either no cholesterol (0%) or high cholesterol (0.12%) for 36 weeks. One group each of diabetic and nondiabetic mice were fed the high-cholesterol diet for 26 weeks then changed to the 0% cholesterol diet for the last 10 weeks. Consumption of the high-cholesterol diet exacerbated the development of diabetic nephropathy with elevations in urine albumin excretion, glomerular and renal hypertrophy, and mesangial matrix expansion. Increased glomerular lipid and apolipoprotein B accumulation was found in diabetic mice that consumed the 0.12% cholesterol diet compared with other groups. However, diabetic mice that changed from the high-cholesterol diet to the 0% cholesterol diet for the last 10 weeks had lower urine albumin excretion and mesangial matrix expansion compared with mice that consumed the 0.12% cholesterol diet throughout. This suggests that hyperlipidemia causes continuous renal injury, and that lowering cholesterol levels by dietary means can improve renal function in diabetic LDLR(-/-) mice. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
