This aimed to provide experimental evidence for the prevention and treatment of RIF. The current study investigated the association between ADO and the biological behavior of renal fibroblasts by establishing an in vitro hypoxia cell model. Hypoxic ischemia in local tissues has been identified in chronic kidney diseases (CKDs), with adenosine (ADO) as a key signaling molecule.
Fibroblasts are the effector cells of collagen secretion in renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF), and their proliferation and activation are essential for the development of RIF.
