During long-term peritoneal dialysis, peritoneal fibrosis (PF) often happens and results in ultrafiltration failure, which directly leads to the termination of dialysis. The accumulation of extracellular matrix produced from an increasing number of myofibroblasts was a hallmark characteristic of PF. To date, glucose degradation products (GDPs, i.

Macrophages play important roles in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), an advanced and inflammatory stage of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). In humans and mice, the cellular heterogeneity and diverse function of hepatic macrophages in MASH have been investigated by single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). However, little is known about their roles in rats.

Background: In acute and chronic renal inflammatory diseases, the activation of inflammatory cells is involved in the defect of erythropoietin (EPO) production. Ras guanine nucleotide-releasing protein-4 (RasGRP4) promotes renal inflammatory injury in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Our study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of RasGRP4 in the production of renal EPO in diabetes.
