The role of classical protein tyrosine phosphatases in diabetic kidney disease and therapeutic implications

Key takeaways

This is a review of a family of enzymes called protein tyrosine phosphatases, which act like off switches inside cells, and what they do in kidney disease caused by diabetes. The authors argue these switches could be targets for future drugs. It gathers earlier work and runs no study of its own, so there are no results yet. Nothing here is ready to change treatment.
