Pax proteins mediate segment-specific functions in proximal tubule survival and response to ischemic injury
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical syndrome with few effective treatments. In this report, we identify a novel and proximal tubule segment-specific role for the Pax family of transcription factors in the differential sensitivity of proximal tubule segments to ischemic AKI. These results may lead to new therapeutic targets for the prevention and treatment of AKI.
