Renal scattered tubular-like cells confer protective effects in the stenotic murine kidney mediated by release of extracellular vesicles

Abstract To test the hypothesis that intrinsic renal scattered tubular cells (STC-like cells) contribute to repairing injured tubular epithelial cells (TEC) by releasing extracellular vesicle (EV). EV released from primary cultured pig STC-like cells were confirmed by electron microscopy. Antimycin-...
