Cinnamaldehyde Attenuates Hyperuricemia-Associated Renal Injury by Modulating Urate Transporters and AIF1- and CMPK2/NLRP3-Related Inflammatory Signaling.

Article D Peer reviewed Preclinical

Key takeaways

Cinnamaldehyde, a compound from cinnamon, reduced kidney injury in rats and cells with high uric acid by blocking inflammatory pathways. This work is not yet tested in people, so it is unclear if it helps humans with kidney disease.
