Core Tip |
Myricetin, a flavonoid, has been extensively utilized in the domains of anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer research. However, the precise mechanism by which myricetin influences the onset and development of diabetic nephropathy (DN) remains a mystery. To address this knowledge gap, we conducted a study wherein we induced DN in db/db mice and subsequently administered myricetin as a treatment. Our findings demonstrated that high concentrations of myricetin effectively mitigated renal injury, inflammation, fibrosis, and other related factors in DN mice. Furthermore, we conducted in vitro experiments to confirm that myricetin activated the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting the polarity shift of macrophages. |
