High Uric Acid-Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition of Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells via the TLR4/NF-kB Signaling Pathway

Abstract

UA can induce EMT in renal tubular epithelial cells by the activation of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway, and the targeted intervention of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway might effectively inhibit UA-induced renal interstitial fibrosis mediated by EMT.
