Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a leading cause of end stage renal disease. Diabetic vascular complications like DN can progress despite subsequent glycemic control, suggesting a metabolic memory of previous exposure to hyperglycemia. Diabetes profoundly impacts transcription programs in target cells through activation of multiple signaling pathways and key transcription factors leading to aberrant expression of pathological genes. Emerging evidence suggests that these factors associated with the pathophysiology of diabetic complications and metabolic memory might also be influenced by epigenetic mechanisms in chromatin such as DNA methylation, histone lysine acetylation and methylation. Key histone modifications and the related histone methyltransferases and acetyltransferases have been implicated in the regulation of inflammatory and pro-fibrotic genes in renal and vascular cells under diabetic conditions Advances in epigenome profiling approaches have provided novel insights into the chromatin states and functional outcomes in target cells affected by diabetes. Because epigenetic changes are potentially reversible, they can provide a window of opportunity for the development of much needed new therapies for DN in the future. In this review we discuss recent developments in the field of epigenetics and their relevance to diabetic vascular complications and DN pathogenesis.
