Abstract excerpt
Although the key role of renal fibrosis in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is well known, the causes of renal fibrosis are not fully clarified. In this study, interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1), a mammalian transcription factor, was highly expressed in fibrotic kidney of CKD patients.
