Abstract:PurposePodocyte injury plays a crucial role in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). A high serum level of insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) has been observed in patients with DN. This paper is to study the role and mechanism of IGF‐1 in high glucose (HG)‐induced podocyte injury.MethodsMouse podocytes MPC‐5 were treated with HG to establish a DN model in vitro. db/db diabetic mice and db/m nondiabetic mice were used to evaluate the IGF‐1 role in vivo. Western blotting was used for measuring protein … Show more
