Epithelial-mesenchymal transition and apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells are associated with disease progression in patients with IgA nephropathy
The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells on the prognosis of immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy. Renal biopsy tissues from 74 cases of IgA nephropathy were divided into a mild mesangial prolifer...
