Exosomes from high glucose-treated macrophages promote epithelial–mesenchymal transition of renal tubular epithelial cells via long non-coding RNAs
Abstract Background Macrophages contribute to epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Exosomal long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) derived from macrophages play a major role in transmitting biological information, whereas related studies on DN are rare. Here we investigated...
