Identification of Fibrotic Biomarkers Associated with Macrophages in Diabetic Nephropathy

CONCLUSIONS Our results provided biomarkers for predicting the fibrotic progression of DN and confirmed that MMP2, CAPS3, and HIF-1alpha have good diagnostic value. They might be involved in the progression of DN fibrosis by regulating oxidative stress and macrophage recruitment or polarization.PMID:37964514 | DOI:10.12659/MSM.940847
