The Protective Effect of a Newly Developed Molecular Chaperone– Inducer Against Mouse Ischemic Acute Kidney Injury

Activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) has been suggested to attenuate renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. We recently found a compound, namely BIX, that activated the UPR selectively through the activating transcription factor 6 pathway. This study examined the effect of BIX on rena...

We recently found a compound, namely BIX, that activated the UPR selectively through the activating transcription factor 6 pathway. This study examined the effect of BIX on renal I/R injury in mice.
