Notably, GLP-1 directly interacts with vagal afferent neurons 19 , and surgical or chemical denervation of vagal afferents and specific Glp1r knockdown in vagal afferent neurons attenuate anorexigenic, insulinotropic and glycemic effects of exogenous GLP-1 and dipeptidyl peptide-4 (DPP-4
Additionally, endothelial cell damage disrupts vascular barrier function, leading to plasma component extravasation, causing renal interstitial edema, further compressing microvessels, increasing vascular resistance, and further deteriorating local perfusion status, resulting in synergistic dysfunction of structural and functional impairments [47]
