Kidney mesangial cells (MCs) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are closely related in terms of origin, microscopic anatomy, histochemistry, and contractility. This relationship suggests a similarity between kidney glomerular sclerosis and atherosclerosis. Vitamin E appears beneficial in the prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease and it also inhibits the proliferation of VSMCs in vitro. Thus, we investigated the effect of vitamin E on glomerular sclerosis and MC-proliferative glomerulonephritis (GN) in two rat models of glomerular disease.
