Finerenone protects against progression of kidney and cardiovascular damage in a model of type 1 diabetes through modulation of proinflammatory and osteogenic factors
The non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) finerenone (FIN) improves kidney and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). We explored the effect of FIN in a novel model of type 1 diabetic Munich Wistar Frömter (MWF) rat (D) induced by injection of streptozotocin (15 mg/kg) and additional exposure to a high-fat/high-sucrose diet. Oral treatment with FIN (10 mg/kg/day in rat chow) in diabetic animals (D-FIN) was compared to a group of D rats receiving no treatment and a group of non-diabetic untreated MWF rats (C) (n = 7–10 animals per group). After 6 weeks, D and D-FIN exhibited significantly elevated blood glucose levels (271.7 ± 67.1 mg/dl and 266.3 ± 46.8 mg/dl) as compared to C (110.3 ± 4.4 mg/dl; p
