Urothelium proliferation is a trigger for renal crystal deposits in a murine lithogenesis model

Abstract Most mouse kidney stone models induce nephrocalcinosis rather than urolithiasis. The aim of our study was to find an accelerated experimental model in order to study the early events of stone formation, that is, at the time of crystal binding to intrarenal urothelium. C57B6 mice exposed to...
