Background: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) represents the primary aetiological factor in end-stage renal disease, wherein lipid metabolism disorders contribute to the progression of DKD. Baicalin, a composition from Scutellaria baicalensis, has exhibited the potential to mitigate lipid metabolism disorders of DKD, but the precise mechanisms remain unclear.
Methods: High-fat-diet (HFD)/streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DKD mouse model was established to appraise the effects of baicalin on renal function, dyslipidemia, and renal ectopic lipid deposition.
