Abstract:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the serious clinical syndromes with high morbidity and mortality. Despite substantial progress in understanding of AKI mechanism, no drug therapy is available for treatment or prevention. In this study, we identified that a ligand-activated transcription factor aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) was highly expressed in the kidneys of cisplatin-induced AKI mice or tubular epithelial TCMK-1 cells. Notably, the AhR inhibition by BAY2416964 and tubular conditional deletion both all… Show more
