Tubular p53 Regulates Multiple Genes to Mediate AKI
4 Apr 2014
Abstract excerpt
A pathogenic role of p53 in AKI was suggested a decade ago but remains controversial. Indeed, recent work indicates that inhibition of p53 protects against ischemic AKI in rats but exacerbates AKI in mice. One intriguing possibility is that p53 has cell type-specific roles in AKI. To determine the role of tubular p53, we generated two conditional gene knockout mouse models, in which p53 is specifically ablated...
