Experts examined 72 biopsy-proven DKD patients and found that tubular long-chain fatty acid CoA ligase 4 (ACSL4) expression was higher in DKD patients than in controls and was positively correlated with proteinuria and negatively with albumin and hemoglobin. Higher ACSL4 levels were linked to a faster decline in eGFR. ACSL4 may serve as a biomarker for identifying DKD patients at high risk of rapid kidney function decline.

New research reveals that non-ablative radiotherapy suppresses ventricular tachycardia by increasing conduction velocity via NaV1.5 upregulation and action potential prolongation. However, sustained sodium current elevation and depressed calcium handling highlight the need for careful clinical translation.
