Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) dominates the pathology of diabetic nephropathy (DN). microRNAs (miRNAs) can influence the fate of DN via regulation of EMT. This study aimed to analyze the role of Icariin (ICA) in EMT of RTECs, hoping to provide theo...
