Abstract

Oxidative stress has been ascribed a role in the pathogenesis of diabetes and its complications, and stress proteins have been shown to protect organisms in vitro and in vivo against oxidative stress. To study the putative role of one of the most abundant cytoprotective stress proteins, inducible cy...
