The role of short-chain fatty acid in metabolic syndrome and its complications: focusing on immunity and inflammation by Wenqian Yu, Wenqian Yu, Siyuan Sun, Siyuan Sun, Qiang Fu

“…This study reviews recent research advances on SCFA in Mets from an immune-inflammatory perspective, including complications dominated by chronic inflammation, as well as the fact that these findings also contribute to the understanding of the specific mechanisms by which gut flora metabolites contribute to metabolic processes in humans. This review proposes an emerging role for SCFA in the inflammatory Mets, followed by the identification of major ambiguities to further understand the anti-inflammatory potential of this substance in Mets. …”

Advances in Murine Models of Diabetic Nephropathy by Li-li Kong, Hao Wu, Wen-peng Cui, Wen-hua Zhou, Ping Luo, Jing Sun, Hang Yuan, Li-ning Miao

“…Although a large number of murine models of DN including artificially induced, spontaneous, and genetically engineered (knockout and transgenic) animal models have been developed, none of them develops renal changes sufficiently reflecting those seen in humans. Here we review the identified murine models of DN from the aspects of genetic background, type of diabetes, method of induction, gene deficiency, animal age and gender, kidney histopathology, and phenotypic alterations in the hope of enhancing our comprehension of genetic susceptibility and molecular mechanisms responsible for this disease and providing new clues as to how to choose appropriate animal models of DN.…”
