Diabetes Decreases HDAC7 Expression and Increases Lysine Acetylation in Bladder Tissue from Type 1 Diabetic Rats: a Potential Posttranslational Mechanism in Diabetic Bladder Dysfunction
Abstract:BackgroundDiabetic bladder dysfunction (DBD) encompasses a broad spectrum of complications that affect over 50% of individuals with diabetes mellitus. While symptoms can greatly affect these individuals' quality of life, there are currently no targeted therapies available. Our focus is the early compensated phase, characterized by symptoms of urinary urgency and overactive bladder. Recent studies have shown that lysine acetylation, a post‐translational modification, may be associated with diabetic complication… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
