AM251 Suppresses Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition of Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells.

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells is one of the causative mechanisms of kidney fibrosis. In our study, we screened lipophilic compounds using a lipid library including approximately 200 lipids to identify those that suppressed EMT induced by a transforming gro...
