Macrophages and diabetic nephropathy

Seminars in Nephrology
G H Tesch

Abstract

Evidence from renal biopsies has shown that macrophage accumulation in diabetic kidneys predicts declining renal function, suggesting a pathogenic role for these cells in diabetic nephropathy. Further evidence from animal models has shown that macrophages are the major immune cells infiltrating the kidney in type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and that they contribute to the development of renal injury and sclerosis. This review examines macrophages in human and experimental diabetic nephropathy, exploring the mechanisms of macrophage recruitment and activation, and the process of macrophage-mediated injury in diabetic kidneys. The ability of current therapies and novel anti-inflammatory treatments to reduce macrophage-mediated injury in diabetic kidneys also is considered, which has important implications for the future management of patients with diabetic nephropathy.

This feed focuses on the association of cardiovascular diseases in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.

Anti-inflammatory Treatments

A drug or substance that reduces inflammation (redness, swelling, and pain) in the body. Anti-inflammatory agents block certain substances in the body that cause inflammation and swelling. Discover the latest research on anti-inflammatory treatments here

Autoimmune Diabetes & Tolerance

Patients with type I diabetes lack insulin-producing beta cells due to the loss of immunological tolerance and autoimmune disease. Discover the latest research on targeting tolerance to prevent diabetes.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
