Linagliptin Limits High Glucose Induced Conversion of Latent to Active TGFß through Interaction with CIM6PR and Limits Renal Tubulointerstitial Fibronectin.
In addition to lowering blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors have been shown to be antifibrotic. We have previously shown that cation independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor (CIM6PR) facilitates the conversion of latent to active transfor...
