Newest firstObjective Kidney glucose reabsorption, primarily mediated by glucose transporter 2 (GLUT2), is essential for systemic glucose homeostasis. While GLUT2's role has been studied in diabetic conditions, its function in kidney proximal tubule cells (KPTCs) under normo-physiological conditions remains unclear. This study aimed to delineate the metabolic consequences of KPTC-specific GLUT2 deletion on renal and whole-bod…
Open article record in new tab ↗The endocannabinoid system (ECS) regulates various physiological processes, including energy homeostasis and kidney function. ECS upregulation in obese animals and humans suggests a potential link to obesity-induced chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, obesity-induced ECS changes in the kidney are mainly studied in rodents, leaving the impact on obese humans unknown. In this study, a total of 21 lean and obese m…
Obesity is a global medical problem; its common form is known as diet-induced obesity (DIO); however, there are several rare genetic disorders, such as Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), that are also associated with obesity (genetic-induced obesity, GIO). The currently available therapeutics for treating DIO and GIO are very limited, and they result in only a partial improvement. Cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), a constituen…
