Apigenin attenuates high-fat diet-induced nephropathy in rats by hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects, and concomitant activation of the Nrf2/antioxidant axis
This study examined the protective potential of apigenin in rats with high-fat diet (HFD)-induced nephropathy, and tested its involvement in the activation of nuclear factor-erythroid 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2). Control, apigenin, HFD, HFD + apigenin, and HFD + Nrf2 inhibitor (brusatol) groups were f...
