Abstract:
Vanin-1 is highly expressed in many organs such as liver, intestine, and kidney. Its main function is mainly related to the activity of pantoyl enzyme mercaptoethylamine. Several studies have shown that Vanin-1 is related to oxidative stress and inflammatory response under physiological conditions, and its role in pathological conditions depends on the diseased organ. This article summarizes the structure, properties, functions of Vanin-1 and its role in the field of kidney disease.
