Activation of Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway by Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3β Inhibition Attenuates Renal Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Diabetic Rats

Abstract

These findings suggest that preconditioning with TDZD-8 may protect the kidney from I/R-induced damage via the activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Further detailed studies are needed to further clarify the underlying mechanisms.
