Methods:&amp;nbsp;Forty DN mouse models were prepared and randomly divided into the sham operation group (Sham group), renal ischemia-reperfusion group (I group), sevoflurane group (S group), and AS1842856 group (AS group), with 10 mice in each group. The I group underwent IRI model establishment; the Sham group did not receive renal pedicle occlusion, the S group received sevoflurane pretreatment before IRI model establishment, and the AS group received AS1842856 solution via gastric administration prior to sevoflurane treatment and IRI model establishment. The conditions of all groups were compared. Results:&amp;nbsp;Compared with the I group, mice in the AS group exhibited improved general condition, reduced serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels (P&amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;&amp;nbsp;0.05), milder renal injury as shown by hematoxylin-eosin staining, and decreased expression of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) proteins and their mRNA levels (P&amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;&amp;nbsp;0.05). Conclusion:&amp;nbsp;Sevoflurane pretreatment abolishes its protective effect against IRI in DN mice, whereas AS1842856 can modulate the protective effect of sevoflurane on IRI in DN mice.</abstract><keywords>Diabetic nephropathy,Ischemia-reperfusion injury,Sevoflurane,Forkhead box transcription factor O1 (FOXO1),AS1842856</keywords></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>[1] Samsu N, 2021, Diabetic Nephropathy: Challenges in Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment.&amp;nbsp;Biomed Res Int, 2021: 1497449.
