Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health problem. The prevalence of diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes in the US is progressively increasing from 7.8% in 2007, 14.5% in 2010 and expected to rise between 24.7% to 32.8% in 2050. Diabetes is the most common cause of end stage renal disease, responsible for more than 40% of all cases in the US, and this number are likely to continue to increase unabated. Endothelial cell dysfunction is a central pathophysiological mechanism that contributes to diabetes and diabetic nephropathy (DN).
