Role of Stat3 Signaling in Control of EMT of Tubular Epithelial Cells During Renal Fibrosis

Background/Aims: Transforming growth factor β 1 (TGFβ1) plays a critical role in the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs) during renal injury, a major cause of acute renal failure, renal fibrosis and obstructive nephropathy. However, the underlying mole...
