Diabetic Nephropathy: Perspective on Novel Molecular Mechanisms [PDF]
, 2016 Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the major cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) globally, and novel treatments are urgently needed. Current therapeutic approaches for diabetic nephropathy (DN) are focussing on blood pressure control with inhibitors of the ...

5‐Methylcytosine Analysis of miRNAs in Minimal Change Disease
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Minimal change disease (MCD) is a glomerular disorder, which is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in children. Additionally, the prevalence of MCD in adults has been increasing in recent years. During protein synthesis, noncoding RNAs can be regulated through a variety of modifications, which helps preserve biological diversity and ...

Contrasting consequences of podocyte insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor inhibition
iScienceSummary: Insulin signaling to the glomerular podocyte via the insulin receptor (IR) is critical for kidney function. In this study we show that near-complete knockout of the closely related insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) in podocytes is ...

The calcium-sensing receptor as a regulator of cellular fate in normal and pathological conditions [PDF]
, 2013 The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) belongs to the evolutionarily conserved family of plasma membrane G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Early studies identified an essential role for the CaSR in systemic calcium homeostasis through its ability to ...

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

C1-Ten is a PTPase of nephrin, regulating podocyte hypertrophy through mTORC1 activation [PDF]
, 2019 Hypertrophy is a prominent feature of damaged podocytes in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). mTORC1 hyperactivation leads to podocyte hypertrophy, but the detailed mechanism of how mTORC1 activation occurs under pathological conditions is not completely ...

iMetaMed, EarlyView.IL‐6 from RTECs upregulates TGF‐β in macrophages, promoting fibroblast transdifferentiation. Isorhamnetin inhibits this effect. ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major global health issue. Kidney fibrosis is a key mechanism leading to end‐stage renal disease.
