DNA-damaged podocyte-CD8 T cell crosstalk exacerbates kidney injury by altering DNA methylation
28 Mar 2023
Abstract excerpt
Recent epigenome-wide studies suggest an association between blood DNA methylation and kidney function. However, the pathological importance remains unclear. Here, we show that the homing endonuclease I-PpoI-induced DNA double-strand breaks in kidney glomerular podocytes cause proteinuria, glomerulosclerosis, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis with DNA methylation changes in blood cells as well as in podocytes....
