Protective Effect of Proanthocyanidin against Diabetic Oxidative Stress

Table 2

Renal function parameters in STZ-induced diabetic rats.

Group	Serum urea nitrogen	Urinary protein
	(mg/dL)	(mg/day)
ND	19.3 ± 0.8^b	13.10 ± 0.76
DC	33.1 ± 1.5	23.02 ± 4.78
DP	30.3 ± 0.6	16.64 ± 2.19
DO	24.0 ± 1.3^a	13.06 ± 0.22

The results are expressed as the mean ± SEM. Significance: ^a𝑃<0.01, ^b𝑃<0.001 versus DC. ND, nondiabetic normal rats; DC, diabetic control rats; DP, polymeric proanthocyanidin 10 mg/kg body weight-treated diabetic rats; DO, oligomeric proanthocyanidin 10 mg/kg body weight-treated diabetic rats.
