Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a major complication of diabetes mellitus. NAD(P)Hquinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is an antioxidant enzyme that has been involved in the progression of several kidney injuries. However, the roles of NQO1 in DN are still unclear. We investigated the effects of NQO1 deficiency in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DN mice. NQO1 was upregulated in the glomerulus and podocytes under hyperglycemic conditions. NQO1 knockout (NKO) mice showed more severe changes in blood glucose and body weight than WT mice after STZ treat
