Swiprosin-1 Promotes Mitochondria-Dependent Apoptosis of Glomerular Podocytes via P38 MAPK Pathway in Early-Stage Diabetic Nephropathy
Background/Aims: Podocyte injury, especially podocyte apoptosis, plays a major role in early-stage diabetic nephropathy (DN). Swiprosin-1, also known as EF hand domain containing 2 (EFhd2), is a Ca2+-binding protein in different cell types. However, the function of swiprosin-1 in podocytes remains u...
