Abstract EN

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is characterized by unclear pathogenesis.

Recent medical data shows that the incidence of DN rises year by year.

Rhein is the main compositions of rhubarb, a traditional Chinese medicinal plant, which plays an active role in kidney protection.

The prophylaxis and phytotherapeutic effects of rhein are due to its anti-inflammatory and antifibrosis properties.

Here, we shed light on the renal protective role of rhein in diabetes mellitus (DM) with a particular focus on the molecular basis of this effect.
