Garlic Attenuates Plasma and Kidney ACE-1 and AngII Modulations in Early Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats: Renal Clearance and Blood Pressure Implications

<div>GE treatment decreased plasma ACE-1 and increased kidney ACE-1 in diabetic rats. ACE-1 was quantitated in both (a) plasma (pg/mL) and (b) kidney (pg/mg) at the end of the treatment period (week 8).
