Elevated intracellular copper contributes a unique role to kidney fibrosis by lysyl oxidase mediated matrix crosslinking
Copper ions play various roles in mammalian cells, presumably due to their involvement in different enzymatic reactions. Some studies indicated that serum copper correlates with fibrosis in organs, such as liver and lung. However, the mechanism is unknown. Here, we explored the role of copper in kid...
