Renoprotective Effects of AdipoRon in Preclinical Models of Renal Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Key takeaways
AdipoRon is an experimental drug that copies adiponectin, a hormone made by fat tissue. Researchers pooled the results of many laboratory studies and found it reduced signs of kidney injury by switching on two cell pathways that control energy use and inflammation. Every study in this pool was in animals or cells, not people. Nothing here shows it would help a person with kidney disease.
