Inflammatory Cytokines in Diabetic Kidney Disease: Pathophysiologic and Therapeutic Implications
Open accessAbstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease and a main contributing factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus. Strategies employed to delay the progression of this pathology focus on the control of traditional risk factors, such as hyperglycemia, and elevated blood pressure. Although the intimate mechanisms involved in the onset and progression of DKD remain incompletely understood, inflammation is currently recognized as one of the main underlying processes. Untangling the mechanisms involved in the appearing of a harmful inflammatory response in the diabetic patient is crucial for the development of new therapeutic strategies. In this review, we focus on the inflammation-related pathogenic mechanisms involved in DKD and in the therapeutic utility of new anti-inflammatory strategies.

“Increased levels of cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IFN-γ as well as chemokines including chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2), C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), CCL5 (RANTES), and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10) have been observed in kidney tissue of rodent models of diabetes, as well as in plasma and serum of people with DKD (43).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
