Deletion of diacylglycerol-responsive TRPC genes attenuates diabetic nephropathy by inhibiting activation of the TGFβ1 signaling pathway [PDF]
TRPC6 plays a critical role in proteinuric kidney diseases, and TRPC3 is involved in tubulointerstitialdamage and renal fibrosis in obstructed kidneys. Podocyte loss is a characteristic event in diabetic nephropathy(DN).

Recent advances in C3 glomerulopathy with monoclonal gammopathy
As a rare monoclonal gammopathy, C3 glomerulopathy with monoclonal gammopathy (C3G-MIg) is a major cause of renal injury in patients aged over 50 years. The key pathogenesis of C3G-MIg is that monoclonal immunoglobulins act as an autoantibody or directly
