1 | Hyperglycemia induces NF-kappaB activation and MCP-1 expression via downregulating GLP-1R expression in rat mesangial cells: inhibition by metformin. | Metformin | glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | We further proved that metformin restored high glucose-inhibited GLP-1R mRNA expression and decreased high glucose evoked inflammation in HBZY-1 cells. | Metformin | glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | On the basis of these findings, we conclude that high glucose lowers GLP-1R expression and leads to inflammatory responses in mesangial cells, which can be reversed by metformin. | Metformin | glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
4 | These data support the rationale of combinative therapy of metformin with GLP-1R agonists in DN. | Metformin | glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor | Rattus norvegicus |
