Engineered RGD‐Treg‐Exos Targeted Delivery of miR‐218‐5p to Activate Mitophagy and Attenuate Podocyte Injury in Diabetic Kidney Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tregs‐Exos deliver miR‐218‐5p to increase mitophagy in podocytes by inhibiting the TNC/TLR4/SRC/FUNDC1 pathway. RGD‐Treg‐Exos, engineered to express RGD peptides on the membrane surface, bind to integrins on the surface of podocytes and effectively target podocytes for the delivery of miR‐218‐5p, which increases mitophagy and reduces apoptosis in ...

Metabolic Stress‐Induced Choline Kinase α (CHKA) Activation in Endothelial Subpopulation Contributes to Diabetes‐Associated Microvascular Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers CHKA as a pivotal driver of vascular dysfunction in diabetic retinopathy and highlights its role in endothelial dysfunction through NAD⁺‐SIRT1‐Notch signaling. Single‐cell and functional analyses, combined with clinical and genetic validation, suggest CHKA as a promising therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of ...

Effect of sex on glomerular filtration rate in programmed rats by prenatal dexamethasone

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
We have previously demonstrated that dexamethasone administered to pregnant rats during specific times during gestation results in a reduction in glomerular number and hypertension in offspring at 2 and 6 months of age.

Glomerular filtration rate: when to measure and in which patients?

open access: yesNephrology, Dialysis and Transplantation, 2018
Of the glomerular, tubular and endocrine functions of the kidney, nephrologists have mostly focused their attention on the glomerular functions-albuminuria and glomerular filtration rate (GFR)-to grade the severity of chronic kidney disease (CKD ...

Microphysiological Uremia Model Reveals Biophysical Potentiators of Vascular Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic platform of engineered blood vessels is developed to study the role of mechanical forces in immune cell adhesion and extravasation in uremic microenvironments. Elevated pressure increases monocyte activity, with ICAM‐1 as a key driver. Matrix density influences monocyte phenotypes, but the uremic environment consistently promoted a pro ...
