Immune Checkpoint Activity Regulates Polycystic Kidney Disease Progression
2022-04-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Innate and adaptive immune cells modulate Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) severity, a common kidney disease with inadequate treatment options. ADPKD shares parallels with cancer where immune checkpoint inhibitors have been shown to reactivate CD8 + T cells and slow tumor growth. We have shown that, in PKD, CD8 + T cell loss worsens disease. This study used orthologous earl...
