Qihuang Yishen formula attenuates renal tubular injury by modulating inflammation via the cGAS/STING pathway in diabetic kidney disease

QHYS attenuates renal tubular inflammatory damage via cGAS/STING pathway regulation. This pioneering study provides the first evidence that herbal medicine exerts renal tubule protection through multi-target regulation of innate immune-mediated inflammatory injury in metabolic nephropathy, offering novel scientific evidence for DKD intervention.
