Targeting a Novel AREG + Dendritic Cell Alleviates Renal Fibrosis Induced by Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury
ABSTRACT Renal ischemia–reperfusion injury (RIRI) is a major cause of acute tubular damage and a key driver of maladaptive repair and fibrosis. However, the cellular initiators that connect early immune activation to tubular epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) during RIRI remain poorly defined. Here, we established...
