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.…”
