Thus, our data, in this large and ethnically homogeneous group of patients, do not support the hypothesis that these genetic variants of the renin-angiotensin system are strongly associated with either nephropathy or hypertension in patients with insulin-dependent or non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

As the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system might also be activated in this setting, we determined the ACE genotype together with other risk factors for the development of diabetic nephropathy in 122 patients with IDDM from a single centre with (n = 63) and without (n = 59) nephropathy.

As angiotensin II increases glomerular pressure, we studied the relationship between genetic polymorphisms in the renin-angiotensin system-angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE), angiotensinogen (AGT), and angiotensin II, subtype 1, receptor-and the renal involvement of insulin-dependent diabetic subjects with proliferative retinopathy: those exposed to the risk of nephropathy due to diabetes.
