Unraveling TGF-β’s Role in Feline Chronic Kidney Disease as a Key Driver to Fibrosis and Cell Death

2024-11-19

Abstract excerpt

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasingly common in older cats. The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) pathway is associated with renal fibrosis. This study aimed to quantify the mRNA expression of TGFβ, MAPK, and Bcl2 genes and the protein expression of TGF-β and MAPK in feline kidney cells and tissues. Gene expression analysis was conducted using relative gene expression, while protein expression was ass...
