Placental Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (PMSCs) and PMSC-Derived Extracellular Vesicles (PMSC-EVs) Attenuated Renal Fibrosis in Rats with Unilateral Ureteral Obstruction (UUO) by Regulating CD4+ T Cell Polarization

Purpose. Recent evidence has shown that CD4+ T helper (Th) cells are involved in renal inflammation and fibrosis. However, whether renal fibrosis can be alleviated by intervening in the polarization of CD4+ T cells remains unknown. Our research investigated the effects of intravenously administered...
