Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is the most common cause of AKI. The susceptibility to develop AKI varies widely among patients. However, little is known about the genes involved. 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) has an important role in the regulation of renal tubular and vascular function and has been implicated in IR injury. In this study, we examined whether a deficiency in the renal formation of...
