iTRAQ-based proteomics and in vitro experiments reveals essential roles of ACE and AP-N in the renin-angiotensin system-mediated congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
CONCLUSION: Suppression of ACE and AP-N expression mediates congenital UPJO pathogenesis by repressing renal tubular epithelial proliferation, promoting ROS production, and enhancing inflammatory factor expression.
