Calcineurin inhibition deactivates pyruvate dehydrogenase and induces proximal tubule cell metabolic dysfunction, causing profibrotic phenotype

2024-11-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are indispensable immunosuppressants for transplant recipients and patients with autoimmune diseases, but chronic use causes nephrotoxicity, including kidney fibrosis. Why inhibiting calcineurin, a serine/threonine phosphatase, causes kidney fibrosis remains unknown. We performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing of the kidney from a chronic CNI nephrotoxicity mouse mod...
