ALB and diabetes mellitus: Importantly, transcript datasets obtained from Nephroseq (https://www.nephroseq.org) showed a mild positive correlation between the glomerular expression of ROCK2 and urinary albumin excretion, measured as the albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR), in murine models of diabetes (Fig. 1c), that may suggest the association of activated ROCK2 signaling with albuminuria.
