Decreased expression of α3β1 integrin may contribute to reduction in podocyte adhesion to glomerular basement membrane (GBM), which represents a novel early mechanism leading to diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Here, we examined the protective effects of Notoginsenoside R1 (NR1) on podocyte adhesion and α3β1 integrin expression under diabetic condition in vitro and in vivo.
