Blocking Connexin-43 mediated hemichannel activity protects against early tubular injury in experimental chronic kidney disease

BACKGROUND: Tubulointerstitial fibrosis represents the key underlying pathology of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), yet treatment options remain limited. In this study, we investigated the role of connexin43 (Cx43) hemichannel-mediated adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release in purinergic-mediated disasse...
