Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Reduces Kidney Folate Transporter Expression and Plasma Folate Levels
In conclusion, ischemia-reperfusion injury can downregulate Sp1 mediated-folate transporter expression in tubular cells, which may reduce folate reabsorption and lead to low folate status.

Experimental acute kidney injury
Conclusions: WNT10A expression may promote fibrotic progression and kidney dysfunction in AIN. Blockade of WNT10A expression may be a feasible therapeutic strategy against kidney fibrosis.

Cell signalling and apoptosis
Conclusions: These results suggest that activation of S1P signaling mediated by S1PR-3 results in chronic pathological fibrosis, such as in chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Tubular ischemia and toxicity
Conclusions: EPC-derived EVs protect the kidney from ischemic AKI by delivering mRNAs coding for factor H, DAF and CD59 to injured tubular epithelial and endothelial cells. These results confirmed previous data on the relevance of complement inhibition after kidney IRI and suggest the potential use of EPC-derived EVs as therapeutic option to avoid delayed graft function after kidney transplantation.

Cell signalling
Conclusions: Taken together, it is likely that klotho protects against renal fibrotic process accompanied by down-regulation of fibrotic markers, counteracting to TGF-β, and one of possible mechanism mediating translocation of Na/K ATPase, resulting in Ca+ channel stabilization/alternation of Ca+ ion concentration. Klotho should be involved in the accentuation of the progression of renal fibrosis in CKD.
