Based on this, the determination
Rat renal tubular epithelial cell (RTEC) cultured with high glucose has been used to observe the protective effect of Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) against diabetic nephropathy (DN). The compounds in GBE binding with cell membrane or entering into cell are still unknown, which may be potential
