The angiotensin II/AT1 receptor pathway mediates malaria-induced acute kidney injury.

The angiotensin II/AT1 receptor pathway mediates malaria-induced acute kidney injury.

Malaria-induced acute kidney injury (MAKI) is a life-threatening complication of severe malaria. Here, we investigated the potential role of the angiotensin II (Ang II)/AT1 receptor pathway in the development of MAKI.
