Description
Summary:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly contagious respiratory virus. Acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) has been reported in a growing number of clinical cases. Some recent studies noted that kidney might be a major target organ of SARS-COV-2. Multiple factors cause the changes of renal function, including direct viral toxicity, renin-angiotensin aldosterone system imbalances, disorders of immune system, cytokine storm, rhabdomyolysis, blood coagulation dysfunction, sepsis, drug-related renal toxicity and crosstalking between organ and symptoms caused by prerenal factors. This review summarized the potential pathogenesis of COVID-19-induced AKI.
