Do inflammatory cytokine genes confer susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy?

Kidney international - 1 Aug 2008

Maeda Shiro

Abstract excerpt

Microinflammation has been recognized as an important process for the progression of diabetic nephropathy. Inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-6 produced by infiltrating cells or renal cells, play important roles in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. Although the mechanisms underlying the regulation of these cytokines in the kidneys of patients with diabetes mellitus remain unclear, genetic...
