Inhibition of SIRT2 Alleviates Fibroblast Activation and Renal Tubulointerstitial Fibrosis via MDM2

Background/Aims: Renal tubular epithelial cells and fibroblasts are the main sources of myofibroblasts, and these cells produce the extracellular matrix during tubulointerstitial fibrosis (TIF). Histone deacetylases (HDAC) inhibitors exert an antifibrogenic effect in the skin, liver and lung. Sirtui...
