Études in vivo et in vitro sur le potentiel néphroprotecteur de plantes médicinales anti-diabétiques de la pharmacopée traditionnelle des Cris de la Baie-James
Our team has identified Labrador tea [Rhododendron groenlandicum L. (Ericaceae)] as a potential antidiabetic plant from the traditional pharmacopeia of the Eastern James Bay Cree. In the present study, we assessed the plant’s potential renoprotective effects. Microalbuminuria and renal fibrosis was...
