Vitamin D protects glomerular mesangial cells from high glucose-induced injury by repressing JAK/STAT signaling

ConclusionVitamin D (VD) treatment inhibits the function of HG on fibronectin production through regulating JAK/STAT pathway. These results provide direct evidences that VD protects glomerular mesangial cells from high glucose-induced injury through repressing JAK/STAT signaling, which has the potential for clinical DN treatment.
