Nonpharmacological, Biomechanical Approaches to Control Inflammation in Acute Kidney Injury.

abstract：BACKGROUND/AIM:Interleukin (IL)-17 is a newly discovered cytokine that is secreted by activated memory CD4+ T cells and modulated the early stage of immune response. To elucidate the pathophysiology of minimal-change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS), we focused on IL-17, which is one of the key factors in regulating an inflam...
