Therapeutic Potential of Heat Shock Protein 90 Inhibitor 17-DMAG in Regulating METTL3 for Kidney Fibrosis Treatment
N -terminal HSP90 inhibition, along with subsequent c-Jun suppression, contributed to the mechanism underlying 17-DMAG-induced METTL3 downregulation. Through this regulatory pathway, 17-DMAG effectively suppressed METTL3 expression and attenuated kidney fibrosis in both in vitro and in vivo models.
