ATP/P2X7 receptor/NLRP3 pathway facilitates renal tubular epithelial-myofibroblast transdifferentiation and interstitial fibrosis in rats with unilateral ureteral obstruction
BackgroundP2X7 receptor (P2X7R) is reported involved in renal fibrosis and the activation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome. This study aimed to investigate the role of the P2X7R and NLRP3 in renal tubular epithelial-myofibroblast transdifferentiation (TEMT) and interstitial fibros...
