Donkey milk supplementation alleviates renal fibrosis of chronic kidney disease by enhancing anti-inflammatory ability by Cui Huimin, Wang Peng, Chen Man, Lin Hong, Zhao Yuxin, Pu Zhiyu, Yang Jianjun

“…However, donkey milk supplementation activated miR-223-3p, thereby inhibiting the expression of inhibitor of kappa-B kinase (IKKα) and nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) proteins. Consequently, the expression of inflammatory factors such as monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) and IL-6 was suppressed, leading to reduced aggregations of macrophages in the kidney and decreased transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) expression. …”
