Exaggerated renal fibrosis in P2X4 receptor-deficient mice following unilateral ureteric obstruction

BACKGROUND: The ATP-sensitive P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) has been shown to contribute to renal injury in nephrotoxic nephritis, a rodent model of acute glomerulonephritis, and in unilateral ureteric obstruction (UUO), a rodent model of chronic interstitial inflammation and fibrosis.
