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...
