Use of immunosuppressant calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) is limited by irreversible kidney damage, hallmarked by renal fibrosis. CNIs directly damage many renal cell types. Given the diverse renal cell populations, additional targeted cell types and signaling mechanisms warrant further investigation. We hypothesized that fibroblasts contribute to CNI-induced renal fibrosis and propagate profibrotic effects via the transforming […]
