An endoplasmic reticulum stress-regulated lncRNA hosting a microRNA megacluster induces early features of diabetic nephropathy

Nephropathy is a common and hard-to-treat consequence of diabetes. Here Kato et al. show that a megacluster of microRNAs regulates early development of diabetic nephropathy in mice, and that inhibition of the cluster's host long non-coding RNA transcript attenuates disease symptoms, suggesting...
