Renal Inflammation and Innate Immune Activation Underlie the Transition From Gentamicin-Induced Acute Kidney Injury to Renal Fibrosis

Subjects recovering from acute kidney injury (AKI) are at risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD). The mechanisms underlying this transition are unclear and may involve sustained activation of renal innate immunity, with resulting renal inflammation and fibrosis. We investigated whether the...
