Impact of sex on diabetic nephropathy and the renal transcriptome in UNx db/db C57BLKS mice

Abstract: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is associated with albuminuria and loss of kidney function and is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Despite evidence of sexassociated differences in the progression of DN in human patients, male mice are predominantly being used in preclinical DN research and drug development. Here, we compared renal changes in male and female uninephrectomized (UNx) db/db C57BLKS mice using immunohistochemistry and RNA sequencing. Male and female UNx db/db mice showed similar progression … Show more
