Autophagy attenuates diabetic glomerular damage through protection of hyperglycemia-induced podocyte injury.
Despite the recent attention focused on the important role of autophagy in maintaining podocyte homeostasis, little is known about the changes and mechanisms of autophagy in podocyte dysfunction under diabetic condition. In this study, we investigated the role of autophagy in podocyte biology and it...
