Article Synopsis
  • Hypertensive individuals have a higher chance of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD), and managing proteinuria may be a potential treatment strategy.
  • A study on spontaneously hypertensive rats revealed increased levels of -GlcNAcylation, a process linked to renal damage and proteinuria in high blood pressure conditions.
  • Inhibiting GFAT, an enzyme involved in -GlcNAcylation, showed promise by reducing both -GlcNAcylation and proteinuria, indicating a novel mechanism related to hypertension-induced kidney issues.
