Abstract

Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors have become the standard treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Despite the efficacy of newer drugs, the risk of progression of kidney disease, and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality remain substantial. Overactivation of mineralocorticoid receptor has been reported to play an important role in the progression of DKD and cardiovascular dysfunction through inflammation and fibrosis. Finerenone, a nonsteroidal selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, may contribute to cardiorenal protection with decreased risk of hyperkalemia. Combining with the standard treatment, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist has emerged as a promising strategy in slowing the progression of kidney disease and lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with DKD.
