Advance and prospective of long non-coding RNA in diabetic kidney disease / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

In recent years, the incidence of diabetic kidney disease(DKD) has been increasing gradually, and it has become the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. However, current therapies show limited efficacy in preventing the progression of DKD. Against the backdrop of chip and high-throughput sequencing, long non-coding RNAs are revealed to an important role in the pathogenesis of DKD. This article summarizes the research progress of long non-coding RNA in DKD, and look forward to the more extensive application of long non-coding RNA in the future.
