As a high-metabolic-rate organ, the kidney exhibits metabolic reprogramming (MR) in various disease states. Given the >800 million cases of kidney disease worldwide in 2022, understanding the specific bioenergetic pathways involved and developing targeted interventions are vital needs. The reprogramming of metabolic pathways (glucose metabolism, amino acid metabolism, etc.) has been observed in kidney disease. Therapies targeting these specific pathways have proven to be an efficient approach for retarding kidney disease progression. In this review, we focus on potential pharmacological interventions targeting MR that have advanced through Phase III/IV clinical trials for the management of kidney disease and promising preclinical studies laying the groundwork for future clinical investigations.      «
