Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is influenced by dysregulated adipokines, which play a key role in inflammation, immune responses, and lipid metabolism. However, the precise molecular mechanisms linking adipokine dysregulation, cell infiltration, metabolic reprogramming DN remain poorly understood. Celastrol, bioactive regulator, has been shown to mitigate renal immune-inflammatory damage inhibiting PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway. Yet, its specific impact on adipokine-mediated responses metabolism unclear. This study aims elucidate interplay between target genes investigate how celastrol modulates these interactions. Gene expression profiles of patients were obtained from GEO datasets (GSE30122 GSE30528) analyzed for differentially expressed (DEGs) using limma package. set variation analysis (GSVA) was conducted assess pathways, while Mendelian randomization (MR) Pearson correlation evaluated association DEGs adipokines.
