Carnitine/organic cation transporter 1 precipitates the progression of interstitial fibrosis through oxidative stress in diabetic nephropathy in mice

Abstract Carnitine/organic cation transporter 1 (OCTN1) is the only known uptake transporter for ergothioneine which is a food-derived strong antioxidant amino acid that is absorbed by OCTN1. We previously reported the roles of OCTN1/ergothioneine in the progression of kidney fibrosis in ischemic ki...
