Abstract excerpt
Smad3 deficiency prevents the development of type 2 diabetic nephropathy; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, we aimed to identify Smad3-related genes involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease. High-throughput RNA sequencing was performed to profile the whole transcriptome in the diabetic kidney of Smad3 WT-db/db, Smad3 KO-db/db, Smad3+/- db/db and their...
