The pathomechanisms of glomerulosclerosis in diabetic nephropathy (DN) are considered to be related with glycometabolism disorder, podocyte injury, intra-renal hemodynamics abnormality, fibrogenic cytokines over-expression, oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction.

Therefore, it is possible to postpone the progress of DN to end-stage renal disease through the treatment with Chinese herbal medicine.
