Introduction: Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of chronic renal failure worldwide. Related to the increased glucose and its metabolites, activation of renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, and increased oxidative stress are important in renal deterioration. The studies indicate that suppression of renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system slow down diabetic nephropathy; Nigella sativa decreases blood glucose and oxidative stress. Were viewed th...
