High glucose suppresses autophagic flux in renal tubular epithelial cells through the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/Unc-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1) pathway, resulting in the accumulation of undegraded protein aggregates and damaged mitochondria ( T lymphocytes, which include CD4 + T cells activated by a high-glucose environment and APCs, as well as CD8 + T cells activated by antigens and cytokines, play crucial roles
