May guide future diabetic nephropathy targets; leaves open translation from rat mesangial cells to clinical outcomes.
This preclinical study elucidates the molecular signaling pathways (PKC-Raf-ERK and PKC-JNK-c-Jun) by which high glucose up-regulates the (pro)renin receptor in rat mesangial cells, providing insight into diabetic nephropathy mechanisms.
Huang et al. (2010) studied this question.
