Profibrotic Effect of Interleukin-18 in HK-2 Cells Is Dependent on Stimulation of the Toll-like Receptor 4 (TLR4) Promoter and Increased TLR4 Expression

IL-18 is an important mediator of obstruction-induced renal fibrosis and tubular epithelial cell injury independent of TGF-β1 activity. We sought to determine whether the profibrotic effect of IL-18 is mediated through Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Male C57BL6 wild type and mice transgenic for human...
