FGF4-FGFR1 signaling promotes podocyte survival and glomerular function to ameliorate diabetic kidney disease in male mice

Nature Communications
Podocyte injury is central to diabetic kidney disease (DKD) pathogenesis, however, the mechanisms underlying podocyte loss remain unclear. Emerging evidence underscores the involvement of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) in renal pathophysiology. Here we

Podocytes in health and glomerular disease

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Podocytes are highly specialized, terminally differentiated cells in the glomerulus of the kidney and these cells play a central role in blood filtration.

GCN2 in proteostasis: structural logic, signalling networks and disease

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Threats to protein synthesis activate the kinase GCN2, initiating the integrated stress response (ISR). GCN2 is triggered by stalled ribosomes and uncharged tRNAs, which accumulate when amino acids are scarce. The ISR adjusts cellular physiology by promoting redox balance, protein quality control, and mitochondrial optimisation.

Nicotine Induces Podocyte Apoptosis through Increasing Oxidative Stress.

PLoS ONE, 2016
BackgroundCigarette smoking plays an important role in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nicotine, one of the major components of cigarette smoking, has been demonstrated to increase proliferation of renal mesangial cells.

Mechanisms of hesperetin in alleviating diabetic nephropathy: Network pharmacology, molecular docking, and experimental validation

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Hesperetin increases cell viability and reduces cell apoptosis, ferroptosis, release of inflammatory cytokines, and oxidative stress of human kidney tubular cells via repressing IGF1R expression. ABSTRACT Background Diabetic nephropathy (DN) accounts for approximately 50% of chronic kidney disease cases.

Association of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist use with clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and type 2 diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
This TriNetX (US, 2016–2023) study compared clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and type 2 diabetes treated with GLP‐1 receptor agonists vs DPP4 inhibitors. ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate whether glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) are associated with improved survival and renal outcomes in patients with ...

Risk of end‐stage renal disease in Korean patients with type 2 diabetes according to cumulative low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol levels

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
High cumulative LDL‐C levels increase ESRD risk in type 2 diabetes, particularly among patients using insulin, those receiving multiple antidiabetic medications, and those with longer diabetes duration. Longer exposure to elevated LDL‐C further increases risk, underscoring the need for intensive LDL‐C control.
