TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated renal interstitial fibrosis induced by a unilateral ureteral obstruction in CCR2 gene-targeted mice and mice treated with propagermanium or RS-504393, cCR2 inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secondary lymphoid tissue chemokine (SLC/CCL21)/CCR7 signaling regulates fibrocytes in renal fibrosis.
Norihiko Sakai,Takashi Wada,Hitoshi Yokoyama,Martin Lipp,Satoshi Ueha,Kouji Matsushima,Shuichi Kaneko +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that CCR7-positive fibrocytes infiltrate the kidney via CCL21-positive vessels, thereby contributing to the pathogenesis of renal fibrosis.
