Uremia impacts renal inflammatory cytokine gene expression in the setting of experimental acute kidney injury
5 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
Inflammatory cytokines are evoked by acute kidney injury (AKI) and may contribute to evolving renal disease. However, the impact of AKI-induced uremia on proinflammatory (e.g., TNF-alpha, MCP-1, TGF-beta1) and anti-inflammatory (e.g., IL-10) cytokine gene expression remains unknown. This study was undertaken to gain some initial insights into this issue. CD-1 mice were subjected to left renal ischemia-reperfusion...
