A team of researchers from Capital Medical University in China looked at the potential of tongxinluo, a traditional Chinese medicine, in treating diabetic nephropathy. Their findings on tongxinluo’s possible mechanism of action were published in The American Journal of Chinese Medicine.
These findings demonstrated that inhibition of TGF-B1 transfer from glomerular endothelial cells to glomerular mesangial cells via exomes may be a possible mechanism of tongxinluo in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.
