Epigenetic Regulation in the Pathogenesis of Renal Inflammation: Insights and Therapeutic Potentials
iNew Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Renal inflammation is a common pathological process in various kidney diseases, often initiated by factors such as toxins, ischemia, or autoimmune reactions. This inflammatory response can result in structural damage and a rapid decline in renal function.

MicroRNA-770-5p contributes to podocyte injury via targeting E2F3 in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological ResearchDiabetic nephropathy (DN) has been identified as the major cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in most developed countries. MicroRNA-770-5p depletion could repress high glucose (HG)-triggered apoptosis in podocytes, and downregulation of E2F ...

Insulin Increases Expression of TRPC6 Channels in Podocytes by a Calcineurin-Dependent Pathway
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2016 Background/Aims: Insulin signaling to podocytes is relevant for the function of the glomerulus. Now, we tested the hypothesis that insulin increases the surface expression of canonical transient receptor potential canonical type 6 (TRPC6) channels in ...
