To investigate the effect of mycophenolate mofetil(MMF) on early inflammatory reaction of renal lesion in streptozotocin(STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups after uninephrectomy: normal control group, diabetic model group, and MMF-treat...
