Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most common and serious microvascular complications associated with diabetes. DN is the leading contributor to the majority of cases of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) can transport various genetic materials to recipient cells. The objective of this study was to explore how sEVs released from HK-2 cells when stimulated by high...
