Tubule‐Derived IFN‐α Promotes GSDMD‐Mediated Macrophage Pyroptosis to Drive Renal Inflammation and Fibrosis Through JAK2/STAT2 Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mao and colleagues uncover a STAT2/IRF9‐dependent signaling axis through which tubular epithelial cell (TEC)‐derived IFN‐α induces gasdermin D (GSDMD)‐mediated pyroptosis in macrophages. This TEC‐macrophage feedback loop amplifies renal inflammation and fibrosis, providing mechanistic insight into the progression of chronic kidney disease and revealing

Affinity‐Based Protein Profiling Revealed that HIGD1A is a Direct Target Protein of Aristolochic Acids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using an affinity‐based probe, this study reveals that aristolochic acid directly binds to HIGD1A with high affinity in the kidney. This binding disrupts the HIGD1A‐TFAM interaction, which in turn triggers TFAM degradation, cytosolic mitochondrial DNA release, and the activation of inflammatory pathways. Abstract Exposure to aristolochic acids (AA) via

Association between change in serum uric acid and rapid decline in kidney function in China

Scientific Reports
While the elevation of serum uric acid (SUA) is acknowledged as a risk factor for chronic kidney disease, the independent extent to which variations in SUA levels are correlated with temporal changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) remains

Experimental rat models of chronic allograft nephropathy: a review [PDF]

, 2014
Chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) is the leading cause of late allograft loss after renal transplantation (RT), which continues to remain an unresolved problem. A rat model of CAN was first described in 1969 by White et al. Although the rat model of RT

Cancer Manipulates Adjacent Adipose Tissue to Exploit Fatty Acids via HIF‐1α/CCL2/PPARα Axis: A Metabolic Circuit to Support Tumor Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cancer cells drive adjacent adipose tissue to release fatty acids by secreting CCL2, which activates PPARα‐dependent lipolysis. The resulting fatty acid influx amplifies HIF‐1α/CCL2 signaling, establishing a positive feedback loop that fuels tumor growth.

Diabetic nephropathy, autophagy and proximal tubule protein endocytic transport: A potentially harmful relationship [PDF]

, 2018
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the most frequent cause of chronic renal failure. Until now, the pathophysiological mechanisms that determine its development and progression have not yet been elucidated.

SETDB2 Mitigates Podocyte Dysfunction in Diabetic Kidney Disease Through Epigenetic Silencing of SMAD3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SETDB2 epigenetically represses Smad3 transcription by increasing H3K9me3 enrichment at its promoter, thereby mitigating podocyte dysfunction in DKD. The transcription factor TCF21 binds directly to the Setdb2 promoter and enhances its expression in podocytes. Abstract Podocyte dysfunction represents both an early pathological hallmark and a key driver

miR-374a Regulates Inflammatory Response in Diabetic Nephropathy by Targeting MCP-1 Expression

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
The microRNA (mir)-374a has been implicated in several types of human cancer; however, its role in diabetic nephropathy (DN) remains unclear. Monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 is a chemokine that recruits macrophages to inflammatory sites and is ...
