MiR-204-5p plays an important role in the regulation of fibrosis, autophagy and oxidative stress. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of miR-204-5p on renal damage in diabetic kidneys and the underlying mechanisms involved.Methods: In vivo, AAV-Ksp-miR-204-5p mimics were injected into mice via tail vein. In vitro, high glucose-induced HK-2 cells were treated with miR-204-5p inhibitor, miR-204-5p mimics, ATG5 siRNA, tertiary butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ), ML385, or 3-Methyladenine (3-MA). FISH and qRT-PCR were used to detect miR-204-5p expression. The expressions of protein and mRNA were detected by Western blotting, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry and qRT-PCR. The concentration of fibronectin in HK-2 cells culture medium was detected by ELISA.Results: The expression of miR-204-5p in diabetic kidneys was significantly inhibited than that in control group. Delivering miR-204-5p mimics increased miR-204-5p expression, improved renal function, inhibited renal fibrosis and oxidative stress, and restored autophagy in db/db mice. In vitro, the expression of miR-204-5p was inhibited by HG treatment in HK-2 cells. MiR-204-5p mimics effectively increased miR-204-5p expression and reduced fibronectin and collagen I expression, restored autophagy dysfunction, and increased Nrf2 expression, whereas these alte
