Rationale: Dietary exposure to aristolochic acids and similar compounds (collectively, AA) is a significant risk factor for nephropathy and subsequent upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). East Asian populations, who have a high prevalence of UTUC, have an unusual genome-wide AA-induced

Flow cytometry studies on injured kidney tubules are complicated by the low yield of nucleated single cells. Furthermore, cell-specific responses such as cell cycle dynamics in vivo have conventionally relied on indirect immunohistochemistry and proximal tubule markers that may be

The plant-derived toxin, aristolochic acid (AA), is the cause of Chinese Herb Nephropathy and Balkan Nephropathy. Ingestion of high dose AA induces acute kidney injury, while chronic low dose ingestion leads to progressive kidney disease. Ingested AA is taken up

Acute kidney injury (AKI) has a critical role in the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Building on our previous findings, we explored the role of miR-382 in facilitating the transition of AKI to CKD using the Aristolochic acid (AA)

Upon occurrence of kidney injury, tubular cells arrested in G2/M stage may promote interstitial fibroblast activation and kidney fibrosis through producing large amounts of pro-fibrotic cytokines. MTORC1 signaling is essential for controlling cell growth, however, the role and mechanisms for
