Cellular senescence is a hallmark of aging and contributes to age-related diseases, including diabetic nephropathy (DN). Additionally, macrophage-mediated inflammation has been linked with DKD. Therefore, we investigated the effect macrophage depletion on kidney cell in DN, focusing relationship between GDF-15 Klotho signaling pathways. Wistar albino rats (n = 24) were divided into four groups: healthy control, liposomal clodronate (LC)-treated healthy, diabetic, LC-treated groups. Rats groups intravenously administered LC once week for 4 weeks. Rat models type 2 diabetes successfully established via administration streptozotocin high-fat diet, as evidenced by increased blood glucose levels, weight body (KW/BW) ratio, serum albumin, creatinine, urea damage, oxidative stress. However, LC-mediated reduced KW/BW improved parameters, decreased inflammatory markers (IL-6 TNF-α), ameliorated treatment promoted polarization towards anti-inflammatory phenotype, downregulated expression, upregulated damage. In conclusion, combats modulating GDF-15, indicating their potential novel targets DN treatment.
