Glis2 inhibits the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and apoptosis of renal tubule cells by regulating the β-catenin signalling pathway in diabetic kidney disease

Lifang He et al.

Summary: This study found that Glis2 expression was downregulated in Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and overexpression of Glis2 inhibited the apoptosis and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs). Furthermore, Glis2 overexpression also suppressed the activation of the beta-catenin signaling pathway, which played a role in protecting against tubular injury.

Jia Chen et al.

Summary: Apoptotic resistance plays a crucial role in the progression of tissue fibrosis. This study reveals that DcR2 mediates apoptotic resistance in senescent renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs), thereby promoting renal fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy (DN). DcR2 enhances apoptotic resistance by interacting with GRP78.

Number 2 Feibi Recipe Inhibits H2O2-Mediated Oxidative Stress Damage of Alveolar Epithelial Cells by Regulating the Balance of Mitophagy/Apoptosis

Xiaofeng Gu et al.

Summary: This study explores the protective effect of FBR-2 medicated serum on H2O2-mediated oxidative stress injury in AECs and elucidates its mechanism. The results suggest that FBR-2 regulates antioxidant enzymes expression, reduces ROS levels, protects mitochondrial function and improves cell survival. Additionally, FBR-2 activates mitophagy and inhibits apoptosis. These findings provide new evidence for the antifibrotic effect of FBR-2 and potential drug candidates for IPF treatment.

Summary: Research on the role of arachidonic acid and its metabolites in kidney disease, particularly idiopathic nephrotic syndrome, is limited. These substances play a significant role in various biological processes related to kidney function, inflammation, and fibrosis. Dietary interventions to maintain balance between arachidonic acid and linoleic acid could potentially help mitigate inflammatory states seen in kidney diseases.

Tumor-Suppressing STF cDNA 3 Overexpression Suppresses Renal Fibrosis by Alleviating Anoikis Resistance and Inhibiting the PI3K/Akt Pathway

Fei Xiao et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that TGF-beta 1 protects against anoikis-induced cell death in MFs and this protection can be reversed by the PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitor, LY294002. Overexpression of TSSC3 impairs cell growth, migration, invasion, contraction, and anoikis resistance in MFs, and decreases the activity of the PI3K/Akt pathway and production of extracellular matrix molecules, which can be attenuated by the PI3K/Akt pathway activator, 740Y-P. Overall, this study suggests that TSSC3 attenuates the anoikis resistance and profibrogenic ability of TGF-beta 1-induced MF by regulating the PI3K-Akt pathway.
