TGF-β promotes fibrosis after severe acute kidney injury by enhancing renal macrophage infiltration

TGF-β signals through a receptor complex composed of 2 type I and 2 type II (TGF-βRII) subunits. We investigated the role of macrophage TGF-β signaling in fibrosis after AKI in mice with selective monocyte/macrophage TGF-βRII deletion (macrophage TGF-βRII(–/–) mice). Four weeks after injury, renal T...
