A cohort study of membranous nephropathy, primary or secondary
Background Although IgG4 deposit against phospholipase A2 receptor (anti-PLA2R) is predominantly presented in the renal biopsy of patients with primary membranous nephropathy (MN), its diagnostic value of this immune complex has not been fully ...

Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 Attenuates Diabetes-Induced Renal Fibrosis by Negatively Regulating TGF-β-p53-Smad2/3-Mediated Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition via Activation of AKT [PDF]
BackgroundEpithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is required for renal fibrosis, which is a characteristic of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Our previous study demonstrated that fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) prevented DN associated with the ...

Endogenous FGF1 Deficiency Aggravates Doxorubicin-Induced Hepatotoxicity
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a broad-spectrum antineoplastic agent that widely used in clinic. However, its application is largely limited by its toxicity in multiple organs. Fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) showed protective potential in various liver diseases,
