Abstract
The contribution of preexisting hypercholesterolemia to diabetic nephropathy remains unclear. We assessed the impact of hypercholesterolemia on diabetic nephropathy using a double knockout (DKO) mouse, null for the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLRNDASH;/NDASH;) and the apoB mRNA editing catalytic polypeptide 1 (APOBEC1NDASH;/NDASH;).
