Metformin Protects Against Cisplatin-Induced Tubular Cell Apoptosis and Acute Kidney Injury via AMPKα-regulated Autophagy Induction
Jianzhong Li,Yuan Gui,Jiafa Ren,Xin Liu,Ye Feng,Zhifeng Zeng,Weichun He,Junwei Yang,Chunsun Dai +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that metformin may protect against cisplatin-induced tubular cell apoptosis and AKI through stimulating AMPKα activation and autophagy induction in the tubular cells.

Quercetin Inhibits Fibroblast Activation and Kidney Fibrosis Involving the Suppression of Mammalian Target of Rapamycin and β-catenin Signaling.
TL;DR: It is found that administration of quercetin could largely ameliorate kidney interstitial fibrosis and macrophage accumulation in the kidneys with obstructive nephropathy and a combined inhibition of mTOR and β-catenin signaling transduction may act as a therapeutic candidate for patients with chronic kidney diseases.
Rictor/mTORC2 signaling mediates TGFβ1-induced fibroblast activation and kidney fibrosis
TL;DR: This study suggests that Rictor/mTORC2 signaling activation mediates TGFβ1-induced fibroblast activation and contributes to the development of kidney fibrosis, which may provide a therapeutic target for chronic kidney diseases.
