Dexamethasone Inhibits Podocyte Apoptosis by Stabilizing the PI3K/Akt Signal Pathway
Corticosteroids like dexamethasone (DEX) are well-established treatments for the glomerular disease that sustain renal function, at least in part, by protecting podocytes from apoptotic death. In this study, we found that PAN causes abnormal expression of the PI3K-binding protein CD2AP, reducing PI3...
