Abstract excerpt
Restoration of kidney tubular epithelium following sublethal injury sequentially involves partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (pEMT), proliferation, and further redifferentiation into specialized tubule epithelial cells (TECs). Because the immunosuppressant cyclosporine-A produces pEMT in TECs and inhibits the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase) activity of cyclophilin (Cyp) proteins, we hypothesized that...
