Selective Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway Activation Concomitant With Sustained Overexpression of miR-21 is Responsible for Aristolochic Acid-Induced AKI-to-CKD Transition

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is increasingly recognized as a cumulative risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Using an aristolochic acid (AA)-induced mouse model of AKI-to-CKD transition, we found that the development of tubulointer...
