MicroRNA-29b Inhibits Diabetic Nephropathy in db/db Mice [PDF]
Molecular Therapy, 2014 Inflammation and its consequent fibrosis are two main features of diabetic nephropathy (DN), but target therapy on these processes for DN remains yet ineffective. We report here that miR-29b is a novel therapeutic agent capable of inhibiting progressive renal inflammation and fibrosis in type 2 diabetes in db/db mice. Under diabetic conditions, miR-29b
