FGFR1 and type 1 diabetes mellitus: This study shows that the combination of insulin and UA significantly improved the pathological changes in the renal tissue of T1DM rats, and the underlying mechanism may be related to improving apoptosis and oxidative stress by regulating p38 MAPK, SIRT3, DPP-4 and FGFR1 levels, thereby blocking TGF-β signaling pathway activation and inhibiting EMT and EndMT processes.
