Because sleep apnea syndrome(SAS) may contribute to poor control of diabetes or hypertension, it is possible that SAS is a risk factor for the progression of diabetic nephropathy. In this study, genetic models of type 1 diabetes or hypertension model were examined. The mice or rats were housed within a cycled oxygen chamber and were exposed to chronic intermittent hypoxia(CIH) in which oxygen and nitrogen flow rates were adjusted to achieve episodic(10 miniute) reductions of ambient oxygen from 21% to 10% for CIH for 12 hours. Howerver, it was not demonstrated that chronic intermittent hypoxia was related to the deterioration of kidney disease induced by diabetes or hypertension.
