Myeloid-derived Wnts play an indispensible role in macrophage and fibroblast activation and kidney fibrosis
1 Jan 2024
Abstract excerpt
Wnt/-catenin signaling plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney diseases (CKD), which is associated with macrophage activation and polarization. However, the relative contribution of macrophage-derived Wnts in the evolution of CKD is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate a critical role of Wnts secreted by macrophages in regulating renal inflammation and fibrosis after various injuries. In...
