Loss of KLF15 accelerates chronic podocyte injury

, 2018
Kruppel-like factor 15 (KLF15), also known as kidney-enriched transcription factor, is known to participate in podocyte differentiation. However, the role of KLF15 in chronic podocyte injury remains incompletely understood, particularly in proteinuric ...

A new mouse model of immune-mediated podocyte injury [PDF]

, 2007
Podocytes play a major role in the initiation and progression of glomerular diseases and are a target of both immune-mediated and non-immune-mediated injury.

Research Progress of Berberine in Kidney Disease: Targeting Mitochondria and Ferroptosis

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates the model‐specific renoprotective mechanisms of berberine (BBR) across three major kidney diseases. From left to right, the diagram shows that BBR targets distinct core pathways depending on the pathological context: in diabetic nephropathy (DN), BBR activates AMPK to improve mitochondrial energy metabolism; in acute kidney ...

GSK3β drives early diabetic tubulopathy via TFEB‐mediated mitochondrial dysfunction

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial dysfunction, including mitochondrial biogenesis, mitophagy, dynamics and oxidative stress, occurs in the early stages of diabetic tubulopathy, which precede proteinuria and renal histological changes. GSK3β is a potential novel biomarker for the prediction of diabetic tubulopathy.

The Beneficial Role of Retinoids in Glomerular Disease

Frontiers in Medicine, 2015
The primary etiology of CKD is a direct consequence of initial dysfunction and injury of the glomerulus, the main filtration system. Podocytes are terminally differentiated epithelial cells in the glomerulus, whose major function is the maintenance of ...

Redox‐Associated Renal and Male Reproductive Alterations Following Dexamethasone Exposure in Male Rats: Histopathological and Spermatological Evaluations

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dexamethasone (DEX) is widely used in clinical practice, although it may also cause oxidative stress–related damage in different tissues, including the kidney and male reproductive system. This study investigated DEX‐induced renal and reproductive injury in rats and evaluated the modulatory effect of reduced glutathione on DEX‐associated redox

Epigenetically Regulated NOX4/NRF2 Axis Mediates PM2.5‐Induced Ferroptosis and Inflammatory Response in Membranous Nephropathy

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aims to explore the involvement and mechanism of ferroptosis in particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5)–induced membranous nephropathy (MN) progression. A cationic bovine serum albumin (cBSA)–induced mouse model of MN was established, followed by PM2.5 exposure.

Deficiency of Nuclear Receptor Coactivator 3 Aggravates Diabetic Kidney Disease by Impairing Podocyte Autophagy

Advanced Science
Nuclear receptors (NRs) are important transcriptional factors that mediate autophagy, preventing podocyte injury and the progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Advances in the Protective Effects and Mechanisms of β‐Aminoisobutyric Acid in Maintaining Multi‐Organ Homeostasis

Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT β‐Aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) is an exercise‐responsive myokine/metabolite released by skeletal muscle and has attracted increasing interest as a potential exercise mimetic and therapeutic candidate in preclinical research. BAIBA acts locally in skeletal muscle and can also reach distal organs through the circulation, contributing to the ...

Activation of acetyl-CoA synthetase 2 mediates kidney injury in diabetic nephropathy

JCI Insight, 2023
Albuminuria and podocyte injury are the key cellular events in the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Acetyl-CoA synthetase 2 (ACSS2) is a nucleocytosolic enzyme responsible for the regulation of metabolic homeostasis in mammalian cells.
